Number Of Ingredients 10

1/4 cup black peppercorns

I used a beef brisket that was about 3 pounds. It took about 10 days to cure, and then I smoked it for 12 hours. The end result was a delicious pastrami that was perfect for sandwiches.

I smoked my pastrami for 12 hours, and it turned out perfectly. The smoke flavor was subtle, but it really complemented the other flavors in the pastrami.

I love that this recipe uses a wet cure. It really helps to keep the pastrami moist and flavorful.
