My wife and I received a smoker as a gift so we're new to smoking foods. I saw that smoked cream cheese was a thing, so had to give it a shot.
It was smoked using Hickory chips. I Smoked it for ~2 hours 250°F. The left block is coated with Holy Voodoo Cajun rub by Meat Church and the right one is coated with everything bagel seasoning.
10/10 ! Would highly recommend!! They both turned out delicious and now we are trying to come up with ideas of other coatings to use. I've been thinking of slightly thinning out a spicy pepper jelly to baste on towards the end of the smoke cycle. I'm open to suggestions of coatings, toppings or wood flavors to try out.
Edit: Fixed time and temp. I had confused it with the hard cheese we are trying today.
Excellent. It's been a minute, probably 3 years since I bought a Pi, time to get searching. Thanks again and have a great day.
You're amazing! Thank you! Now to find a Pi 4 that's actually in stock. Any recommendations on RAM version?
I don't have a NAS yet, but I've been interested in one as well as PiHole for a bit. I have 2 Raspberry Pi 3b+ currently and have muddled my way through setting up Octopi for a 3D printer on one and setting up ADSB plane tracking on the other. Mostly copy-paste commands as you did on both of them using PuTTY. If I ever get a Pi 4, I'd be interested in doing what you did with yours. Any resource suggestions?
