Fresh Mozzarella
$4.95
If you see smoked mozzarella for sale, it’s usually aged because the really fresh stuff would just melt in a smoker. If you see fresh smoked mozzarella, it’s usually artificially flavored with liquid smoke. Our mozzarella is unique: it’s real fresh mozzarella, flavored with nothing but a blend of mesquite and hickory wood smoke, in our proprietary refrigerated smoker.

When we decided to sell smoked sous-vide meat, it became apparent that smoking under refrigeration would deliver a superior product. Frankly, we were shocked to find no refrigerated smokers on the market. So we built one. Which produces superior smoked meat, but also allows us to smoke other interesting things, that you might not expect. We smoke several kinds of cheese, including soft cheeses that would probably melt in a normal cold-smoker. We smoke butter, and we smoke salted caramels that we make here by hand. We’re always looking for something else interesting to smoke, and we’ll even take special requests. If you have a good idea, email us at info@smokehouseprovisions.com, and we can talk about it!
Preparation
Our frozen product, when kept properly frozen, is good for 6 months after the freeze-by date. The best way to thaw it is to move it to the refrigerator a day or two before use. The rule of thumb is: the slower it thaws, the better quality it will have.
To Prepare
- Get a bowl or other container that’s large enough to hold all the meat
you’re making. Run your tap until the water is hot, and fill the container.
Submerge the meat, still in the package, in the hot water for 5 minutes or
so. This brings the center up to a good serving temperature. - Meanwhile, if you are using a grill get it as hot as you can. For a
cast-iron pan, preheat it for at least 3 or 4 of minutes. Remember, this
product is fully cooked. You don’t have to worry about doneness. You’re just
searing the outside. - Remove the product from its bag and use paper towels to dry it thoroughly.
If it’s not dry, it won’t sear. - If you’re grilling, brush the product with oil. No need for salt or other
seasoning! If you are using a pan, add a good amount of oil to the pan;
enough that the bottom of the product will be covered. - Sear the product to your desired color on both sides; a minute per side is
usually long enough. Remove and, if desired, blot off excess oil. There’s
also no need to rest this meat. Eat it while it’s hot!!
