Ok Guys,, Bare with me. My Son just called and said he ships out to Afghanistan in about a hour so I am  a little pre-occupied..

 I have a brisket flat that a de-fatted and put in a bag with TQ wet brine with pickling spices coriander and CBP.. How long do I leave it in the frige for? For Strami...
 
I think the formula is 1 day for every 1/2 " thickness of the meat in the thickest spot.

 I always add a couple of days for good measure. Make sure and do a fry test to check for saltiness.

Our prayers and thanks go with your son!

Thanks Guys,

 So can I leave it in too long?? Does it have a minuman  but not amaximun? 

 Thanks for the Well wishes for my Son, I will Pass along all the Thanks if he gets to Call. Last I heard from him was last night, so I dont know if he shipped out already or not. Which adds to the level of frustration. The "Not knowing"
 
Can't answer your pastrami question, but I wanted to say thank you to your son for his service and I pray for all the men and women of our armed services. They are truly heroes. 
 
A big thanks to your son!  A big thanks to you, because for every vet who serves, there is also a whole family who serves!

A little too long is better than too little, especially if your fridge runs cold.  Within reason, I will always err on the side of longer rather than shorter.

May God bless the few who still choose to stand up for us!

Good luck and good smoking.
