How To Cold-Smoke Cheese

I use a commercially available smoker, slightly modified, to
cold-smoke cheese. I put a couple of wooden braces across the top of my top loading smoker, and put the grill bracket on top of that so the drip pan is a few inches above the top of the smoker. I just use the box the unit came in, placed upside down over the top of the grill bracket-- and smoke the cheese for about an hour and a half. One thing is important: let the cheese sit out in the open air for about twenty minutes before you wrap it- this lets it harden a little and it will tend to last longer in storage
