1. Smoke the Apples
Prepare your smoker by lining a wok with heavy-duty aluminum foil and adding a handful of hardwood chips. Place a grill grate over the chips and arrange the apple rings on the grate. Cover the wok with a lid and set it on the stove over medium heat. Allow the apples to smoke for about 30 minutes, until they take on a slightly darker hue and a smoky aroma.
2. Prepare the Fondue
In a food processor, combine the shredded Cheddar cheese and Velveeta chunks. Add the half-and-half gradually, blending until smooth and creamy. Next, incorporate the applejack and cayenne pepper. Once the apples are smoked and chopped finely, fold them into the cheese mixture.
