smoked pastrami with my new wood.

[africanmeat]

I got a new wood made out of the skin and the pips that is left from the grapes that are pressed for wine .
I tried as wood for a grill and it was great.
now i smoked pastrami .
it was good . but i will stick to my cherry wood.

plate me.  bread, no bread.  I don't care.  got mustard?

That looks very tasty!

[drholly]

That is beautiful! Just wondering - why staying with cherry?

Looks great Ahron!

Looks great Ahron, I notice you place the oven probe above the meat.. I smoke with a Bradley and the folks on the Bradley forum say you should put the oven probe just below the meat as the moisture emitted from the meat during the cook will affect the reading if above the meat....have you done any experimentation in regards to oven probe placement?  I have been placing the probe in the bottom of the tower even if I am cooking on higher racks but not sure the temperature is as desired at the meat level..just curious....

I'll have some on rye bread Ahron!!! Nice color on the pastrami!!! Don

[Chili Head]

Oh baby!! That looks delicious!
No bread and no condiments..just pile it up on a plate for me!

Two pieces of good Jewish rye bread, thin, of course; a nice pile of heaven and several slices of provolone melted over the pastrami; and don't forget some good deli mustard with a little horseradish bite to it.  That would be delicious!!  Great job, Ahron.

Was it the flavor or the burn for you saying that you will stick to cherry?

[Sam3]

Throw me some kraut, Thousand Island dressing and swiss cheese with that!
