I love smoked cheese and always wanted to smoke some of my own. I looked through several posts to learn how to do it. Was thinking of getting a tube or maze pellet device but I wanted to get some cheese smoked before the holiday. Just for S and Gs I experimented with using applewood and briquettes. I lined up three briquettes with chunks of wood on top and below then lit just one to start it. It worked just fine. Gave me a steady smoke for two hours and could have gone much longer. I used my CB Stacker with the diffuser plate and an ice tray under the cheese. The highest the temp got was about 81 degrees. It was a cool day. Had no problem controlling the temp.
*This was done about a week ago. I just had no time to post it due to a ton of OT at work. I will probably do my taste test Christmas day.
