I just discovered something strange about the first provolone I picked up from Sam's Club and want to know if anyone else has seen this stuff, knows what the heck it is used for? and whether it is still good after being cold smoked and vacuum sealed for about 2 months.

I never noticed when I was buying a variety of cheeses to smoke that this provolone had a "fresh butter core"



This is what it looks like after cutting it in half




Wife said the center tasted like shortening when she tasted it before I had found the first picture to check the label.

Be careful about calling yourself and EXPERT! An ex is a has-been, and a spurt is a drip under pressure!

But i did see a huge Provolone.

Did you also notice that the packaged cheese looks like a toilet seat. LOL. Damn, need a big smoker for that log of cheese. Yum.
I like to walk threw life on the path of least resistance. But sometimes the path needs a good kick in the ass.
