Here is the first slice of a pressure finished pastrami I smoked today. This will be part of the cooks snacks (and visitor snacks...) served tonight while cooking our Parade Day Barbecue. We'll get the cookers fired up by 5 or 6 tonight shooting for a 11AM finish. The menu is 40# of brisket, 70# of pork butts, a bunch of lamb shoulders, 150 hot dogs,150 sloppy Joe's, and all kinds of sides.
Happy Trails

thirdeye, I think that pastrami would melt even before it hit my mouth. Wow!
That is quite a pic. -
Wow! Wayne, when it comes to combining cure and smoke, there is simply nobody better. You forge the trail that the rest of us follow. That is some awesome looking pastrami! I'll never be better than a thirdeye wannabe. You are da man!

I really think your pastrami goes far and above "snack" item. Looks so good.

That is one of the nicest pastrami shots I have seen. Sure do love that method.
Do you have a good sloppy joe recipe or is it canned?
GG -
I was wondering about the SJ recipe also. I'm guessing it is NOT canned. :blink:
-
Sounds like a long busy day of cooking for you but bet it will be great. That pestromie looks really moist!
-

GOOD EATS AND GOOD FRIENDS

Now how am I supposed to order a pastrami on pumpernickle with mustard in a New York deli ever again?
-
I was going to buy some dark rye and make sandwiches for the boys but I forgot it. Anyway it was a big hit.Happy Trails~thirdeye~Barbecue is not rocket surgery -
Canned?? You mean like Manwich?? No way man, here's the recipe I use. Note that I borrowed Mr's ~t~'s method of cooking the meat with the spices on top (she does this for her Green Chili) and it really helps the flavors.
thirdeye's Sloppy Joe’s
10 lb. ground beef
Dry Ingredients:
2 tbsp chili powder
3 tbsp black pepper
1 tbsp crushed red pepper
1 tbsp kosher salt
5 tbsp granulated garlic
Fresh Ingredients:
5 stalks of celery diced
2 green peppers diced
4 onions diced
Sauce Base:
1 cup catsup
3/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup red wine vinegar
1/2 cup BBQ sauce
2 - 6oz cans tomato paste
1/2 cup yellow mustard
1/4 cup spicy mustard
1/4 cup Worcestershire
1 can beef broth (start with 1/2 can, reserve the remainder and add later if needed)
Place beef in roasting pan(s) and sprinkle all dry ingredients on top and brown in a 375° oven for about 1/2 hour. Saute celery, green peppers and onions in Nesco roaster or large stew pot. Combine all the sauce base ingredients in a large bowl and blend.
Add the browned beef and some of the pan drippings to the roaster with the sautéed veggies. Add the sauce base. Mix well and cook at 275° for a couple of hours. Add the reserved beef broth if needed for the consistency you are after.Happy Trails~thirdeye~Barbecue is not rocket surgery -
At 6PM last night I had around 100 pounds of meats on three cookers, and had assumed the standard barbecuist position... The younger guys kept saying things like "can we help you do anything?". I just said "No,.... we're doing it".
Then this afternoon, we served 185 folks... It was our largest crowd to date.Happy Trails~thirdeye~Barbecue is not rocket surgery -
