Smoked cheddar (recipe)


  1. It's very important that you not allow the temperature of your smoker or grill to rise above 90 degrees. Otherwise the cheese will start to melt. In the summer I end up putting a bowl of ice in the smoker to lower the temperature.
  2. Start a small pile of charcoal briquettes.
  3. Cut cheese into 4-oz cubes (a pound of cheese makes 4 cubes).
  4. Using a smoke tray (or metal bowl) place 3 briquettes in your tray and place a small handful of wood chips on top.
  5. Place in a smoker or covered grill along with cheese. Leave for 20 minutes.
  6. Remove smoke tray, take out the charcoal and place back in your pile of charcoal and replace with 3 fresh briquettes and another small handful of wood chips. You can re-use the old chips if they aren't blackened yet, otherwise get rid of them.
  7. Continue refreshing the charcoal and replacing the wood chips every 20 minutes for a total of 4 hours.
  8. Remove cheese from smoker and refrigerate in a zip-loc for about a week to allow smoke flavor to mature.
