Prep Time 25 minutes
Cook Time 1 hour
Total Time 1 hour 25 minutes
Servings: 8 servings

Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb cheddar cheese cubed
  • 2 cups grapes
  • 2 cups melon cubed
  • 16 basil leaves
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • 24 skewers

Method
 

  1. Cold smoke the cheese cubes at under 90F for about an hour for a gentle smoky flavor.
  2. Let the smoked cheese chill in the fridge.
  3. Thread the smoked cheese, grapes, melon, and basil onto small skewers.
  4. Arrange the skewers on a platter.
  5. Drizzle lightly with honey and serve cold.

Notes

Cold smoking keeps the cheese from melting, so keep temps low or use pre-smoked cheese.
