Smoked Cream Cheese

[kilo charlie]

Had to try the Smoked Cream Cheese trend..


A couple of different flavors

One 8oz block cut in half, rubbed with each flavor and topped with some EVOO.

Smoked at 260 for 3 hours ... Smoked was running a tad higher as it was in the direct sun at this time of day.

Shared 1/2 of each block with my neighbor who is my official taste tester.

Conclusion:

Fun experiment but it's not a show stopper. Most people are surprised the cream cheese doesn't just melt into a puddle of goo.

Might be a Party Garage thing but I wouldn't make it just for myself again.

Thanks for the critique. I've been wondering about this latest fad. We had a few garage parties and Zoom happy hour meetings during the lockdown. Saved a lot on tips, but I was over served a couple of times.

Nice review, kilo! Was wondering about this myself, but probably won’t try it.

I think I need some of this with my smoked oysters!

Thanks for the review. I likely still have to try it one time. I’m more interested in smoking it to then use in other recipes. Gotta love having taste testers! I have a few volunteers too!

Haha luckily I only have to walk across the street!

It's worth trying it once.. maybe different rubs will change the flavor

You could definitely try it!

You're welcome.. and definitely try it.. maybe some other flavors or rubs will be better.
