Wow, I have to try making my own pastrami as that looks amazing!! I don't have a pressure cooker, is that a required step??
Bruce -
Bruce,
No, a pressure cooker is not required.
Thirdeye gives you three options.See the link at the top of my original post.
it's worth the effort -
Sweet, Jon. I didn't use Wayne's recipe, but I've got one that looks pretty similar in the oven right now, slowly warming over a pan of water. I can hardly wait for dinner.
-
Looks very tasty Jon
Ross -
Thanks Jeff.We were chomping at the bit waiting for it to be done.I'm sure you are too.It's worth the wait.
-
Thanks Ross!

Great Pictures
You have inspired me to something new! -
That look great. The best pastrami I ever ate was at Katz Deli in NYC. I've gotta believe that yours would top it. I'm going to have to do one myself. Can you freeze some after it is finished?
-
Looks like that turned out great and tasty!! Nice Jon!
It'll make a few more great meals!Molly

That's a really nice brisket. The thickness is really a bonus. I can taste that sandwich from here.Happy Trails~thirdeye~Barbecue is not rocket surgery

Well, chomp no more. It's finally done, and the pics are absolutely dreadful:
After the brining, three days in a mix of salt, pink salt, sugar, brown sugar, pickling spices and other things, then rinsed, soaked and wrapped until it's smoking time:
Then I rubbed with cracked black pepper and coriander for the smoke. I tried like heck to lay as much cold smoke on it as possible, with not much success...150 was about as cool as I could get my lump fire without snuffing the Egg. It was on for about 8 hours and pulled at 150:
I wrapped the smoked pastrami for tonight's family "reunion" (one kid was in Germany for a week, the rest in Atlanta visiting the inlaws), then put on a rack above a pan full of water for about 6 hours at 275. Pulled and sliced thin for sammies (the wife and I had reubens):
Verdict: It came out better than I had hoped, a strong B+. Very good flavor, but still a bit chewy. Brisket and I are not the best of friends, but this one cooperated fairly well. A definite "do-again." -
Jon, those sandwich pictures have my mouth watering, do you deliver.
Great looking cook and a cook well worth doing. If you end up with any left over try some of the pastrami burgers, it makes a great mix.
Now I have to go pick up some corned beef tomorrow.

Mike,
I sliced some for sandwiches this weekend and divided the rest into two pieces and put in the freezer.we'll see how it does after freezing.I doubt it will stay in the freezer very long -
Thanks Molly.Maybe there will be some left for you to try when you come up here.
-
Yours looks very good Jeffersonian!I love that peppery bark.
-
Thanks Wayne..Your recipe is definately a keeper.
This tasted so good I'm not sure I would try any of your other methods.You know when you find something so good you never want to venture out and try a different way of cooking. I was amazed that the internal temp out of the Pressure cooker was 198'.Cool! -
Thanks Kent.I'll try some on a burger.That must be heaven!
-
Jon, your pastrami on pumpernickle with mustard would make a perfect lunch for me! The pastrami looks beautiful. Makes me want to try my hand at pastrami. That would make a great sandwich for March Madness.
-
I didn't expect it to get quite so dark (it was just medium-dark after the smoke...very dark after the steaming), but it was full of flavor, as you might expect of a mouthfull of black pepper and coriander :P
-
Wow, that looks just great. I love Harris Ranch beef, have you ever been there? It is a regular overnight stop for us when heading up to No. California. Great restaurant & inn. And of course, great meat that they vacuum wrap and deep freeze for your drive.
