I nailed the pastrami last Sunday.
Wanting to try my hand at making some pastrami I thought I'd start with a corned brisket from Hy-Vee and go from there.
Soaked, rinsed, soaked rinsed to get the salt out then packed in a pepper, juniper berry, rub for a couple of days in the fridge. Sunday I threw in the NB with some other stuff. Left it on the 'cooler' side and took the internal temps up to around 180 then packed it up in butcher paper and let it rest for couple of hours. After cooling in the fridge over night and I sliced it up. http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c2...0225Medium.jpg I nailed it. :bow: |
Wow, that looks really nice. I would like to try my hand at making pastrami some day but have never gotten the nerve up to spend the cash on the stuff to make it.
Great photo as well... Must warn you though, with the title of this thread you should be prepared for the possibility that this train may be on the way to derailment. LOL |
Did you steam it afterwards to warm up? I think I remember somewhere people saying the steaming is pretty key. Also I've found BBQ places that make their own pastrami without steaming to be overly salty.

It looks the business, how did it taste?
|
Looks great!
|
looks great! I'd also like to know more about the steaming if anyone has any info. So why did you pull it at 180 instead of running it up to butter probe consistency?
|
Awesome looking Pastrami! Ever since I visited Katz's deli I've wanted to make my own pastrami...this fuels that desire...well done!
|
Looks great, feel free to send me so for sampling!
