Rack C

I will be using my SS Bradley Smoker with the Bradley Cold Smoke Adapter.

I'm using 2-1/2 hours of Apple Wood.

Here is a quick look after the first hour.

Looks like you're well on your way to a successful smoke!!

Pulled out of the smoker after 3 hours.

Using my Weston bags that I purchased after a posting by BLSH, vac sealed and...

Applied custom labels.

Now into the frig for a minimum of 30 days before shipping out to family members.

Nice. I have several packages of cheese that hit 4 weeks on Wednesday. All I can do to stay out of them. Think I will go six weeks before hitting the first one.

Great looking inventory of cheese.

I must have missed BLSH's post on the Weston bags. Would you mind to elaborate?

Hey Larry,

Weston Vac Bags. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001GP81OK

They also have the Weston Vacuum Sealer Bags 8-in.x50-ft. 18.99

Someone asked about the best place for bags in an earlier post. What I like about the Weston Bags - no print on them.
