Diggerg Posted May 16, 2019 Share Posted May 16, 2019 (edited) My first go at pastrami tomorrow. My son got me a salt beef flat from bookers. Soaking overnight with water changed to remove salt then into the UDS with a recipe from Malcolm Reed for his version. Can't wait.

Diggerg Posted May 16, 2019 Author Share Posted May 16, 2019 Following this for now. Love the smell of freshly ground coriander seeds. Smells like blue moon wheat beer. 😋😋😋 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Icefever Posted May 17, 2019 Share Posted May 17, 2019 Pastrami is my all time favorite meat, I've been thinking of having a go for some time now. We were in our Booker yesterday getting the meaty ribs along with a load of other stuff. I'm going again next week will look out for the same salt beef flat cut. Ice.

Diggerg Posted May 17, 2019 Author Share Posted May 17, 2019 Trimmed it up after soaking over night. Generous with the rub. Rolling smoke at 275°f 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diggerg Posted May 17, 2019 Author Share Posted May 17, 2019 (edited) I struggled to find a tub big enough to soak it on so used the OH cake tub upside down. 😂 Edited May 17, 2019 by Diggerg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diggerg Posted May 17, 2019 Author Share Posted May 17, 2019 Wow is all I can say. 4 1/2 hours from smoke to eat 😋😋 In a sarnie with mustard and pickles. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diggerg Posted May 17, 2019 Author Share Posted May 17, 2019 Thanks. @Icefever this is my first go so it can only get better. Defo with a try I think. My missus was really sceptical but loves it.

Diggerg Posted May 29, 2019 Author Share Posted May 29, 2019 (edited) @Icefever this just popped up on another page I am looking at.

Justin Posted August 30, 2019 Share Posted August 30, 2019 (edited) I just been to c humphrey s and chatted about your picture of jacobs ladder, he said he always cuts them like that too as they look more presentable on the plate, it is harder to cut through the bone once it is cooked. All good go for it, they will be lovely i think Edited August 30, 2019 by Justin 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
