I sure didn't get the...

    My attempt at SmokinAls Pastrami

    Just finished my first Dry Cured Pastrami and I wanted to shout out SmokinAl as I used his Brisket Pastrami recipe with a few tweaks and OMG it is a definite regular in the rotation now not just for St. Paddy's Day. The wife said, "Better than Brisket" and that's the only review I need. I do...

    Can you cure too long before making?

    Going for my second batch of Jalapeño/Cheddar. I was hoping to make during the week but life got in the way. I have had my beef and pork cubed with insta cure #1 in freezer bags in the fridge for 4 days. Is that okay? How long can I realistically delay?
