    Smoked Cheese

    I am going to try smoking cheese for the first time tomorrow. I am wondering if the cheese could just be left in the smoker for a couple days before vacuum packing . The temp will be between 40 and 50 degrees. Would this work? Thanks

    new to Smoking, I built a smoker and wondering if its going to work.

    I had some concrete 5' diameter x 3' tall risers setting around. I stacked two up and put a plate on the top and cut a 5' x 2' door on the side of the risers. Down the hill a few feet I buried a couple concrete ground vaults that I used for a fire box then buried a 5" sq tube that ran into the...
