Howdy from the Heart Of America (US)
« on: March 03, 2015, 11:08:19 PM »
Just joined so I wanted to say hi.  Name is Bob and I am from Kansas City, Missouri, USA.  Been looking at making cheese for awhile, lurking here and reading.  I love to cook and try new things with food, and recently started smoking cheese.  I purchased a kit from a local store and made a Farmhouse Cheddar and Monterry Jack this past weekend.  Not sure how they will turn out, because I know I did a few things wrong.  But I also learned a lot, so can't put a price ($9 bucks for the milk mostly :)) on that, now can you.

Welcome to the Forum.  It's great to have you with us.  We're just starting to legally smoke marijuana here in Washington State.  I don't know the legal status of smoking cheese.  Have you fellows in Missouri been smoking it a long time?   ::)

Well, I just started smoking cheese.  The hardest part is getting it into the paper.

Yes, I really think that we should try to keep these two issues separate.
When the recipe says place a gallon of milk in your pot..... well, you could end up ruining both.

Hi Bob from KC.  There're a few "smokers" here so make yourself at home :).  Your post reminds me I better do my "spring smoke" before it gets too warm to cold smoke.
