My family and friends enjoyed the pastrami recipe so much I did another round. I used the recipe from my previous pastrami post, a variation SmokinAl's recipe.  

Rubed and ready.

After about 6 hours at 200-220

Pink color from the cure #1

Ready for the distribution to friends and family.

Thanks for looking.

S2K9K,  Eye of round.  I got the idea from a Triple D episode.  The guy used eye of round from an ELK.  The butcher I use has the cut of meat for a pretty good deal so I have used it twice now.  

My first attempt:  http://www.smokingmeatforums.com/t/116653/pastrami-via-smokinals-recipe

Thanks everyone for the compliments!

Thanks Diesel, Elk pastrami now that sounds awesome! I did one last weekend from sirloin tip and it came out real good. I like larger slices for sandwiches and that eye of round looks like some real large slices, I might just have to try that.
