Thoughts on type of cheese for fresh brats

I tried the ghost pepper… That’s spot on but, don’t like to sweat. Serious heat there. -
processhead we have always put hi-temp cheese on our brats.

PapaSop there is a big heat gap between the pepper jack and the ghost pepper. Pepper jack is a little mild and ghost pepper will burn me down! There is a high temp cheese called lava jack. If fits nice between pepper jack and ghost pepper. It is a jalapeño/habanero blend. I won’t mention where I get it, but you can google it. Maybe something Walton’s can look into carrying?

Thanks for that. I was also looking for an in between

While they’re looking into adding different cheese, how about getting high temp bleu cheese on the list
I also saw a thread dating back to 2020 I think, there was mention of adding additional groups for other smoker types. Did anything become of that, WSM or kettle type?
Thanks in advance -

It’s weird. Any pepper jack I buy up my way has plenty of kick to it.

Wish I would have saved the bag, I’d send the rest to you. My one son and I each sampled a little square. No frigging way… Long gone now. Sweating just talking about it. LOL

I made 10 pounds of snack sticks with 1/2 pound of ghost pepper. It was all I could do to eat 1 stick. That stuff is hot for sure.
