Pastrami, Italian Beef, and Raw Ribeye meets my slicer (pr0n)

[CakeM1x]

Decided to cook up some pastrami from some corned beefs I bought last year on sale and my mom gave me a 9lb prime rib that my brother said was tough(was on sale for 4.99/lb). She thought I'd be able to salvage it with my meat slicer so I took it to make italian beef and some thinly sliced raw for some future philly cheese steaks.. The prime rib said SK or KS cut which I assume is select cause there wasnt much marbling.

For the pastrami I soaked overnight with 2 batches of water and seasoned with Thirdeye's pastrami rub. Threw those on the big joe with pecan @275. wrapped at the staff and pulled at 200.

For the prime rib I did meatheads italian beef recipe, it's our goto. Seasoned and put on the roti on the weber with some apple smoke in some pouches. I didn't want much smoky flavor and this was perfect amount.

All rubbed up and stabbed

The setup

Pulled at 115

The next day I took the product to my old 1960s berkel slicer. First time cutting a lot of meat and it worked great. Can't wait to paint it when it get's warmer out.

All sliced up. Took like 5 minutes.

Pastrami

Packaged for easy meals. Starting to do this quite a bit. Saves a lot of time.

Wifey had a italian beef with cheese last night and said it was the best yet so that prime rib didn't go to waste. Thanks for lookin!

That all looks great! I find a lot of the 4.99 rib roasts can be pretty lean and therefore chewy. Great idea to repurpose them for thin sliced applications. I have sliced raw as well for cheese steaks but never though to make roast beef for sandwiches or italian beef with them. Around here those cheaper rib roasts are sometimes even cheaper than the round cuts.:thumb:

Thanks, the slicer was free. Did quite a bit of cleaning to get it workable again. I want to figure out how to disassemble it to get to the sliding rail for the meat tray since it could be smoother imo.

Wasn't bad at all now that I had more room and a cart. Cleanup took about 10minutes after all said and done. Probably less next time.

I'll take a loaded Dagwood please! Everything looks great!

You and me both!
