I got my Pastrami working this weekend
I had a couple of Gobels corned beefs in the fridge that were about to expire so I cooked them up yesterday. I picked these two because they had point and flat. As it turned out they were a little too lean and not as unctuous as I would have liked, but good eats none the less.
It was a dark and rainy day so I set up my climate control system.  I smoked them with hickory at about 225 for 6 hours or so but when they stalled at 140 I bumped it up to 270. They hit my target of 160 about an hour later.  They had a nice crunchy bark.  A little taste of each was necessary for QA purposes.  I put one up in the freezer and steamed the other today for lunch with a friend.  All in all not a bad meal. I sent my buddy home with the leftovers. I own him now.   Thanks for looking.

Had done the corned beef trick as well. But if you have access to a butcher, there's no sub fo some navel. Well worth the extra step to cure fresh navel.

Thanks for the kind words. I think going forward my corned beef pastrami will be made from the point. Fat! I need more FAT!
