Method

  • Get your smoker going and set it to the lowest possible temperature.
  • Have on hand an 8 x 10-inch disposable aluminum pan for each item to be smoked.
  • Pour each ingredient to be smoked in its own disposable aluminum pan.
  • Cold smoke each ingredient for 2 hours.
  • Stir them every 30 minutes to increase the amount of exposed surface area.
  • If you are smoking dairy, fill one extra pan with ice for each container of dairy.
  • Put each container of dairy on top of a pan of ice in the smoker.
  • Remove them from the smoker and let any liquid condiments cool to room temperature before placing them in storage containers, putting any perishable items in the refrigerator.
  • We save the original containers and reuse them after smoking, simply labeling them smoked, so that they are easily stored in our cupboards and refrigerator.
