Post by: STLstyle on January 15, 2014, 03:51:14 PM
Will be making deer sausage this weekend so it's time to get the cheese in the fridge ad well. Need it ready for opening day of trout season.  Did mild and sharp cheddar, provolone, and Gouda.

State park "hatchery" trout that is.  Good excuse to get out March 1 and camp with some friends an enjoy good food and good company along with a little fishing too.

Looks great, nice color!  I just love smoking cheese.  It's so easy this time of year with the cold temps.  Problem is I'm running out of room!  Gonna have to find a "cheese frig".

That cheese is looking great!
I did my very first batch on Jan 4th.  I'm hoping it is ready for Superbowl Sunday, Feb 2nd, although that might be cutting it close.  I did colby and sharp cheddar. Is there a difference in how  much time between the two cheese varieties with regard to aging that it might take to be edible?

I don't see that you'll have much difference in aging time between those two since they are so similar, but I don't have near the experience with cheese as others do.
