Grandson and Pastrami

My grandson is spending the day at the house and he assisted me with preparing the pastrami.
Soaked for 2 days to desalinate and rubbed with garlic paste, salt, pepper, paprika, brown sugar, ground coriander seeds, and mustard powder.
On the Egg with pecan chunks at 250 and I'm looking to pull it at 165 IT, refrigerate it a bit, slice it thin and give it a quick steam for Reubens tonight.
More pics to follow when it comes off the Egg.

Thanks! We're on the computer now watching the cook on the Flame Boss. He's fascinated.South Jersey Pine Barrens. XL BGE , Assassin 24, Weber Kettle, CharBroil gasser, AMNPS

Off the the Egg at 165 IT. I'll let it cool in the fridge for about an hour and then slice it. Reubens await!

Just bought a corned beef brisket and plan to make some this week. Problem is I'm the only one who likes pastrami in the house. Any thoughts on long term storage. I mean I know I could freeze it but does anyone have tricks to freeze or store best?

@HopFather28I'm guessing you can vac seal it and then freeze it. That's what I'm planning to do if there's any left.South Jersey Pine Barrens. XL BGE , Assassin 24, Weber Kettle, CharBroil gasser, AMNPS

Looks great! That'll be a good sammich.

Thanks, @Dyal_SC. I hope it tastes half as good as it smells.South Jersey Pine Barrens. XL BGE , Assassin 24, Weber Kettle, CharBroil gasser, AMNPS

I've vacuum sealed my leftovers and they defrost fine especially if you steam it.

@HopFather28 - just eat it every other day til gone. I am the big brisket inhaler in my household and I have been known to run with brisket for lunch and dinner for 8-9 days straight. (No judgements here )
BTW-welcome aboard and enjoy the journey. Great folks here-but can push the envelope, especially on an alcohol fueled Friday or Saturday.Louisville; Rolling smoke in the neighbourhood. # 38 for the win. Life is too short for light/lite beer! Seems I'm livin in a transitional period. -
Thanks @lousubcap long time reader/lurker and I finally joined. Been an Egger for 5 years. I would totally do what you suggested but I'm in season (baseball) and rarely get to eat at home enough to consume that much pastrami.

Looks great. Are you planning to steam or boil to finish it? Or just slice it as is? I have a couple corned points I picked up for cheap I'm going to try my hand at turning into pastrami and was planning to steam to finish.They/Them

@DMW No steam or boil to finish - didn't need it.. It came off at 165 IT and sat in the fridge for a couple of hours to firm up enough to slice very thin. I sliced it and put it in Reubens with home smoked swiss cheese.............and the sammiches were the bomb!
