Difficulty: Easy
Total Time 3 hours
Course Appetizer
Cuisine Italian
Servings 6

Ingredients
  

  • 8 oz brie cheese wheel
  • 6 oz prosciutto

Honey Butter

  • 1 stick of butter melted
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/4 cup honey

Instructions
 

  • Start by preheating your smoker to 250 degrees. This temperature is ideal for melting the cheese and infusing the flavors into the cheese without overheating it.
  • Take the cheese wheel and wrap it all around with the prosciutto. The prosciutto will add a salty and savory flavor to the cheese and also help keep it from oozing out.
  • Using a brush or your hands, slather the wrapped cheese with a bit of cooking oil. This will help prevent the cheese from sticking to the smoker and also create a nice crust on the cheese.
  • Sprinkle your desired sweet seasoning on top of the cheese. This will add a touch of sweetness to the cheese and complement the flavors of the prosciutto.
  • Place the seasoned cheese in the smoker. Close the lid and let it smoke for 1.5 hours.
  • After 1.5 hours, it’s time to baste the cheese with the honey butter. To make the honey butter, simply mix the melted butter, garlic powder, and honey together in a small bowl. Use a brush to generously apply the mixture to the cheese.
  • Leave the cheese in the smoker for an additional 20 minutes. This will allow the honey butter to caramelize and create a nice glaze on the cheese.
  • Once the time is up, pull the cheese off the smoker and let it cool for 3 minutes.
  • Slice the cheese and serve it along with crostini’s. The crostini’s will provide a crunchy texture and complement the creamy and rich flavor of the cheese.
  • Enjoy your delicious and flavorful smoked brie and prosciutto cheese wheel. Serve it as an appetizer or a dessert, it’s perfect for any occasion!
