EASY HOMEMADE PASTRAMI
Great pastrami is not the easiest thing to find west of the Catskills, so a few years ago I embarked on a mission to find a way to turn the common corned beef into something similar. My goal was to come up with a reasonable substitute that could be done in less than a day at home, without a smoker, or any other special equipment. Impossible? No!

HOMEMADE PASTRAMI (SALLYE)
This is my tweaked version of an award winning recipe from a well known deli in Florida that is famous for their pastrami. To make it more "home cook" friendly, I use the pre-prepared corned beef brisket in lieu of brining your own. It cuts down a couple of days and lots of labor, and is just as good if not better.

Steps:
- *** NOTE: You need to buy the packaged corned beef that has already has been cured and has spice packet. If you prefer to brine your own, see step 2 below.....
- Corned Beef Brine Recipe Ingredients 8 cups water or 6 cups water and 2 cups lager beer 1 1/2 cups Diamond Crystal kosher salt 1 cup light brown sugar 1 tablespoon curing salt 1/4 cup corned beef spice 1 tablespoon garlic powder 6-8 pound beef brisket Preparation Instructions Brine: Pour 2 cups warm water into large deep roasting pan. Add salt, sugar and curing salt and stir until dissolved. Add remaining 6 cups of liquid and mix in the corned beef spice and garlic. Submerge the brisket in the liquid, then top with heavy platter to weigh down. This is important, the brisket must be completely submerged. Cover and refrigerate for two weeks. Stir the mixture about every three days. This will aid in even flavoring of the brisket. Then follow steps 2 through 8 to make pastrami.
- Mix garlic and oil in a small bowl.(You can buy garlic flavored olive oil, but I don't think it gives you the full flavor) Set aside for one hour.i
- Combine pepper and all other spices (including the spices from the packet that comes with the beef) in a large bowl and set aside.`
- Place a large piece of heavy duty aluminum foil on clean counter or cutting board. Coat the foil with prepared garlic oil Lay corned beef on foil and brush with remaining garlic oil Cover all sides of brisket completely with pepper and spice mixture, reserving 1 or 2 tablespoons.
- Place brisket fat side up back on foil sheet and wrap tightly in the foil, make sure foil piece is large enough to completely encase the brisket and overlap Place wrapped brisket on another sheet of foil with the seam and fat side down Wrap with this sheet of foil snugly Do this several times (at least 3 more) reversing the seam each wrap Be sure each wrap is tight so spicy juices won't escape or pastrami will be dry Place brisket in baking pan and cook in preheated 225º oven for 6 hours
- Remove from oven and set pan on rack, leaving aluminum wrap intact Cool at room temperature for about 3 hours After 3 hours, place still wrapped pastrami in heavy duty plastic bag and set in fridge overnight (at least 10 hours)
- When ready to serve, preheat oven broiler Unwrap pastrami and place on baking sheet lined with foil Sprinkle reserved pepper mix over pastrami Place in oven about 6-8 inches from broiler Broil for 3 or 4 minutes to brown Remove from oven and place on serving platter Cut into thin slices
- Preheat heavy skillet over low heat Heat pastrami slices in skillet with a few drops of water until fat begins to turn from white to translucent (about 5 minutes)
- Good luck and good eating.

Steps:
- For the brine: In a large stockpot, add half of the water, the brown sugar, kosher salt, curing salt, coriander seeds, mustard seeds, fennel seeds, juniper berries, chile flakes, bay leaves, cloves, cinnamon and star anise and bring to a boil. Then simmer for 30 minutes. Add the remaining water with some ice to chill the brine.
- For the rub: Grind the peppercorns, coriander and juniper until crushed but still a little chunky. Add to a mixing bowl. Add the salt, brown sugar, chile flakes and granulated garlic and stir to combine.
- For the pastrami: First, clean all the fat off the brisket including the "V" between the two muscles, then follow the fat between the two muscles and separate them making a flat and a cap.
- Transfer the brine to a large hotel pan or roasting pan. Add the brisket and refrigerate at least 5 days and no more than 10 days. Make sure the brisket is stirred once a day to get an evenly brined brisket.
- After a minimum of 5 days, prepare a smoker for 225 degrees F.
- Remove the pastrami, rinse it and blot dry with paper towels. Thoroughly rub the brined brisket with the pastrami rub. Place in smoker and cook for 8 hours until the internal temperature reaches 210 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer.
HOMEMADE PASTRAMI
Though the brining and curing steps take several days, the active time is minimal. You mix up a brine. You make a rub. You smoke the brisket then press and refrigerate the meat overnight. Simple! Rye bread never had it so good.

Steps:
- 1. Make the brine: Bring the water to a boil in a large pot. Stir in the garlic, juniper berries, bay leaves, salt, brown sugar, curing salt, if using, whole peppercorns, and allspice berries. Let cool completely, then immerse the meat. (Weight it down with a plate if necessary.) Refrigerate for 3 days.
- 2. Make the rub: In a spice grinder or small food processor, combine the black pepper, coriander seeds, mustard seeds, and bay leaves. Pulse until coarsely ground. Stir in the brown sugar, paprika, cinnamon, and clove.
- 3. Remove the meat from the brine and rinse under cold running water. Pat dry with paper towels. Sprinkle and pat the rub on the brisket. Cover tightly with plastic wrap. Refrigerate for 24 hours.
- 4. When ready to cook, prepare your Smoker for 180 degrees.
- 5. Remove the plastic wrap from the beef brisket and arrange on the grill grate. Smoke the meat for 3 to 4 hours. Wrap the brisket tightly in foil. Increase the temperature to 250 degrees, and continue to cook the brisket until the internal temperature is 175 degrees. Allow the brisket to cool to room temperature, leaving it in the foil. Transfer the brisket to a baking dish, and weight it with foil-covered bricks or cast iron skillets. Refrigerate overnight. Slice thinly against the grain for serving. (A meat slicer is preferred to a knife.).

- Prep the corned beef. If possible, make your own corned beef. It is just plain better than storebought. For pastrami, the flat section of the brisket is favored by many because it makes nice even slices for sandwiches, but I prefer the point section of the brisket because it is fattier, richer, and more tender. It can also be made from flank steak, or leaner cuts, or even from boneless short plate (rib meat). If you are using brisket, one side of the meat will probably have a thick layer of fat on it called the cap. Remove all of the fat cap except about 1/8" and if there is any filmy membrane on the other side, remove it all. That thin layer of fat is important. The process takes about a week.
- Desalinate. Put the corned beef in a pot slightly larger than the meat and cover it with cold water in the fridge for at least 8 hours. This removes excess salt. Trust me, you need to do this or you will be gulping water all night after your meal.
- Rub. Make the rub. Rinse the meat, and while it is damp, apply the rub liberally, about 4 tablespoons per square foot of surface, and press it into the surface to help it adhere. If there is a thin part of meat, use less rub. Put in the fridge for a minimum of 2 days. Don't wrap it. The rub just sticks to the plastic wrap. Normally I say you do not need to let meats marinate in a rub, but the wait seems to help this particular rub adhere.
- Fire up. Set up your grill in 2 zones for smoking or set up your smoker. If you can, use a charcoal smoker. It produces a deeper darker crust than any other cooker. Preheat to 225°F. Pick your wood. I don't think it makes a huge difference with all the other flavors banging around in there. My best batch was with cherry wood.
