Apple wood Smoked Wasabi Almonds, Pecans, Pepper Jack & Medium Cheddar

[Wingman]

I have been wanting to smoke up assorted nuts and send them off to Seboke (Ken) in Kabul Afghanistan. I have been without a vacuum Sealer since I hammered mine during a move. It was a Food Saver and was a good unit.

Some of you have been happy with the Vacmaster bags and service provided by Lisa from vacuum sealers unlimited. So I thought why not try a Vacmaster vacuum sealer. I ordered the Vacmaster Pro 260 as it had the vacuum hose & brining function. Last night I smoked up some Blue Diamond Waabi & Soy Sauce almonds. They were on sale for 2 cans for $5 and these things are amazing cold smoked. The flavor profile changes and you can't really taste the Wasabi but they taste way better. I did some pecans, medium cheddar and Pepper Jack as well. I liked the nuts and vacuum sealer so much I cold smoked a load of Pistachios. They are all sealed up for the trip over seas.

Also, just a FYI... Ken got the last two boxes today. He was like... :nana2 :




Thanks Lisa!

THanks... Man I love this Vacmaster! I keep wanting to vacuum seal stuff. I'm going to Mad Hunky brine some chicken tomorrow using the Vacmasters brining function.
