I don't. Its a "countertop" smoker so it just has sort of a cold smoke/hot smoke/slow cook option. Also it is definitely not "countertop." not sure who in their right mind would smoke food inside. I love the smell, but you'd never get it out.
I actually did a cold smoked cheddar in my small electric smoker. Vacuum sealed it and let it sit in the fridge for 3 months. FANTASTIC!!
If you do try to eat a smoked cheese anytime before at least a few weeks to a month it will taste ashy and underdeveloped for sure.
I use a stovetop popcorn popper that is a step above whirley pop quality. It works really well, the only thing you don't have as good of a control over is temperature, but I've been honing my method. It's a lot of fun!
And definite the biggest surprise factor is how "not good" they smell when...
And she’s home!!
Everything looks to be in great shape and I’m excited to organize everything and smoke some of these babies. Maybe I’ll hit the vherf tomorrow if I’m able to get some time!
