Prep Time

5 min

Cook Time

60 minutes

Ingredients

Cheddar Cheese
Parmesan Cheese
Bleu Cheese

Utensils Needed

The Flip Professional Smoke Box
Premium Smoking Chips - Coarse

Instructions

Cold smoking is adding smoke to something and not adding any heat. We did it using a Flip Professional Smoke Box in a Vertical Smoker and placed it on the bottom of the smoker and put our cheese on the top shelf too keep it as far away from the heat source as possible. We lit the chips, opened the side vents all the way and the top vent 1/2 way and smoked it for an hour. When we took them out of the smoker we vac packed them and kept them in our fridge for a week to let the smoke mellow out a little bit.

So, Will it BBQ?

Obviously smoked cheese is a thing alot of people like. We wanted to see if it was easy to do at home and it was. Smoking cheese at home gave us at least as good results as what you are going to buy at the store and it allows you to control how smokey you want your cheese!
