Smoking Cheese

CVDSmokeShack

I have some 8oz blocks of different cheeses and plan on smoking them this afternoon.
Need some feedback please on how long they need to smoke with apples chips???

Thanks for any input you may have!

I always go with 1/2 pounders, even if I cut them.
I go real simple with the "bean can & soldering iron" smoke generator.
I have gotten to the point of going two hours (my family, friends and people that I sell to all like a stronger flavor), with Apple-wood.
Cherry is nice too!!

We just did it for the first time with the can/soldering iron (caveman) method; we used apple chips and smoked for 1.5 hours. It is cooling outside - per all the advice, I am not putting it into my fridge for a while ! Hoping for good results..

I really don't think it is a problem in the fridge. once it is bagged.
I wrap in a plastic wrap and then into a freezer Zip-Lock and have not had any smokey smells.
