Pastrami today
« Reply #-1 on: December 27, 2013, 09:25:05 PM »
I started with a packer brisket that was on sale at HEB about a month or so ago, trimmed down. Cured it for 4 days and smoked it in the Bradley with 4 hours of hickory pucks. I brought it to 1550 due to the fact I cooked some several weeks ago to 1650 and it was too dry. Got them in vac bags now to rest in the fridge till next week so the flavors will equalize before slicing (on my Christmas present)

Nice seasoned crust!!! Sounds like you got a new slicer, slice it thin. I have done pastrami and find it best if sliced as thin as you can. I like to use a steamer to heat it for sandwiches. Don

Right Don. This is my third cook of pastrami. I like to shave it really thin, then pile it on a sandwich that reminds you of Dagwood
