Bravo!  That's  some great looking pastrami. I really like seeing a little fat marbling in pastrami like that.

After the 2 weeks in the fridge did you soak it in fresh water?

I really like the looks of that injector. At the last gathering I won one of those meat marinate tumblers. I'm wondering if it would do the same thing. Pam  .☆´¯`•.¸¸. ི♥ྀ.
