Ordered some coarse grinder salt and am now wondering if I can smoke it in the egg. Hot or cold smoke? Do it with a shoulder or cheese? How long?

    I've cold smoked salt, but not sure if temperature matters that much (not like salt will melt at low/slow temps), usually for around 2 hours.  I do try to maximize the surface area by spreading out in a fairly thin layer, and giving it a shake or stir while smoking.  Never tried smoked pepper.
