Okay I received my AMNS today, with some Hickory and Mesquite.

So I took a small block of Cheddar, small block of Colby Jack, and a small block of Pepper Jack

cut them into small long blocks and now am cold smoking them.

Lighting the AMNS was a breeze and the dust fired up and is smoking fine.

Will send pics when it is done.

Also would like to thank everyone in this forum for all the advice again.

And also I want to thank Todd for such a great product. Thanks Todd.
 
Post your pics when you're done.

Make sure you vac seal and allow to rest for 10 days or so.

Smoked cheese can be bitter until it mellows out

ENJOY!

Todd
 
I  age mine at least 21 days before eating.   I get $3 for 4oz presmoked weight.

Looks like it turned out okay..... I guess I will know in 2 to 3 wks.

Thanx for lookin'
 
Congrats on your first cheese smoke. Let us know how it turns out
 
Can't wait to here the results, I'm sure it will be delicious!

I have a hot spinach dip recipe that calls for smoked mozzarella cheese. If I can find it I will share it with you guys, that dip is delicious, I think I got it from food network's website.
 
Yup, good looking product there- doing some every couple weeks keeps the waiting pains at bay once the first is ready.
