    Question on storing Pastrami before Finish

    Gotcha, I assumed you just missed the work part and that I was doing this all at home, where I would do what you suggested normally. My only problem with that is I will be cooked 2-3 of these ~4lb corned beefs.  I am not confident in the timing of all three being where I have them all hit their...

    Question on storing Pastrami before Finish

    Thanks for the reply!  Biggest issue with holding in Sous Vide is I would be smoking at home but have to transport it to work, which is a 45 minute drive and not the best to move a container filled with water and sealed meats, while keeping the SV going. :) I think after a ton of reading I will...

    Question on storing Pastrami before Finish

    Thanks for the reply! I have an IPDUO60 (Instant Pot 6 Quart Low/High Pressure Cooker).  I also have an Anova Precision Cooker.  I have been doing some reading and the Anova may be a better approach.  I plan to vacuum seal the pastrami and refrigerate it.  So, what I may do is put the pastrami...

    Question on storing Pastrami before Finish

    Yeah, if I could warm it with the pressure cooker that would be good too.  I haven't learned enough about the pressure cooker to just do the warming without overcooking it or something.

    Question on storing Pastrami before Finish

    I noted in my post that we COULD warm it at work, but it requires everyone running back and forth to a microwave a decent distance from the room.  I liked the idea of having a way of doing the entire thing in one go in the room.

    Question on storing Pastrami before Finish

    Hello! Love the forum, I have learned so much here.  One thing I am having trouble finding an answer to in some old posts is when it comes to having a period between the smoke and the finish on something like pastrami. I want to do the method of smoking the corned beef brisket to 150, and then...

    Brisket Success... then near failure... need some advice!

    Thanks for the replies!  If I remember correctly, it was a busy day, I did put it in the cooler with as many towels and blankets as I could fit, but it dropped to about 150 in the matter of about 2 hours, putting me at 11am, no way it was going to make it to 6PM while staying at a safe temp to...

    Brisket Success... then near failure... need some advice!

    Hello all! I had an MES30 and now have a 22.5 WSM.  My first smoke on it was a cheap-ish rack of ribs to test it out and it went pretty well.  My second smoke was a brisket, which I loved doing on my MES, but could never get a good bark or smoke ring. So I prepared the brisket and put it on...

    Smoked Ribeye Steak w/ Q-View

    Hi all, I started off on an MES 30 and a couple weeks ago got a 22.5 Weber Great Smokey Mountain, which I love.  One of my favorites on my MES was to smoke and reverse sear a steak, and I had some trouble getting temps to the right level on my WSM when I did a brisket about a week ago, I think...
