    Very cool idea.  I’ve never heard of this before - how similar or different is it?

    @Legume , for my simple country hick taste buds, alot like beef pastrami, yet with the lighter pork texture.

    I know thats not much help.....it was most eggcellent though!

    Sounds interesting. Got a recipe? Did you just use a typical salt brine or did you add a coriander rub? I've only made pastrami once, following thirdeye's recipe.

    Not Katz's or Carnegie Deli (RIP), but not bad.

    Then, doc said to watch the salt so a big ol' corned beef brisket didn't seem prudent. Restrictions have been relaxed a bit, but I still try to be a (mostly) good boy. Maybe a butt with Thirdeye's coriander blend for a few days and no brine? I'll have to think about it.

    I hate it when I go to the kitchen for food and all I find are ingredients!
