    Venison and goose pastrami

    I was looking at your temps and time. I was going for around a pound an hour. Want 165 degrees and was tod that should allow enough smoke to penetrate it. I used a remote probe that I can monitor through the process. I started out at 225 but the temp was causing the meat temp to rise too fast...
