Any suggestions on how to tackle a corned beef brisket

plpetry · September 2016

I saw I had this nice piece of 3.5lbs cut of meat lurking in the bottom of my freezer. I think it might be ready for some quality time in the Big Green Egg Tomorrow. Would you "low and slow pros" suggest handling it like a regular brisket, or is should it be treated in a unique and special way? Thanks for all the suggestions!

Use it to make pastrami. You soak it first in water to draw out the salt, then rub it and smoke it. You can finish several different ways.

Here's some links for additional reading.
