Sea Salted Caramel Smoked Cheesecake

Desserts

Deliciously rich, decadent Sea Salted Caramel Smoked Cheesecake, made on your smoker instead of in a regular household oven – it turns out fabulous!

Sea Salt Caramel Smoked Cheesecake

Have you ever considered making cheesecake on the grill? If not, it’s time to give it some thought. Some people may say something to the effect of “why in the world would you put cheesecake in a smoker?”

Let me just comment with … why not?

Here in Phoenix, the hot summer heat starts rolling into town by end March. Since we’re now in May, temps are here to stay – upper 90’s and even triple digits are a daily occurrence. Folks who live here go to great lengths to keep the house cool as possible during the day, which includes avoiding the use of the oven.

Sure, you can make cheesecake via your Instant Pot, we’ve done quite a bit:

  • Instant Pot Pumpkin Cheesecake
  • Dulce de Leche Cheesecake
  • Instant Pot Cheesecake
  • Chocolate Cheesecake

Doing cheesecake on the smoker is a whole ‘nother level of coolness – not to mention it keeps the house in check during the summer heat!

Sea Salt Caramel Smoked Cheesecake

This sea salt caramel smoked cheesecake starts with the traditional graham cracker crust, placed in an easy to use bundt pan.

After giving it some time to ‘cook’ in the smoker, you’ll pour the batter over the crust. Swirl in your caramel, and place the cheesecake back in the smoker. Place a shallow pan of water under the cheesecake, and smoke the cheesecake for 90 minutes at 275 degrees F.

The cheesecake will jiggle a bit in the middle after 90 minutes. Carefully remove from the smoker and allow the cheesecake to come to room temperature before refrigerating.

Remove and run a butter knife along edges of cheesecake to help prevent cracking as the cheesecake sets.  Remove from the springform pan and slice the cheesecake to serve. Go wild – drizzle that cheesecake with even more caramel as you platter it for friends and family.
