My search for "smoked cheese" came up with a lot about smoke and a lot about cheese but not much on smoked cheese. Let me know if I didn’t look hard enough.
The articles I’m reading on other sites say to smoke it for 1 to 3 hours and to keep the temp low, below 90 degrees to prevent the cheese from melting. Sounds logical but I thought this was prime bacteria danger zone temp and holding it there for three hours. On top of that, some also recommend having the cheese at room temp before starting. What am I missing about cheese that allows it to be fine?
