Nope just keeping it corned beef for st paddy’sWould help to know what your plans are for it. Are you making pastrami? Or just wanna go with corned beef?
Thanks guysSalt is salt either for corned beef or pastrami. I soak overnight. Change the water a few times.
Sounds likepc farmer has you covered. Good luck
Nope basically the same. That's why I said you had it coveredJust my way Jake. You might be different. Everyone has different ways. Once I started curing my own I dont need to soak.
That’s interesting and definitely on point for St Paddy’s. In general How long are you gonna be simmering everything to get tender? What IT is good for CB?Since your SV'ing the CB then I agree with farmer and Jake. However I like to cook the premade CB in a pot of simmering with the potatoes, carrots, and cabbage. This way soaking is not necessary, and the flavors of the beef and veggies get to intermingle.

Awesome, thanksAbout 45 min. /lb. Check with a skewer or fork for tenderness. Add the veggies around the last hour or so of the cook.

Am I looking for more 140 or more like 200? Gonna make rubens with it but swap out cabbage for the Kraut in the name of St Paddy Daygmc2003 and
pc farmer nailed it. for a SV I would definitely try to get some salt out. the packages ones are quite salty if they are not boiled or soaked. I have read many methods on the soak. for me its overnight or 24 hours with a few water changes. I am sensitive to too salty and also have the high BP. I would rather have it be less salty than more.
Once I baked a store bought without soaking - it was nearly inedible...it was a pink salt brick.
TNJAKE, I had a recipe that I really liked on making pastrami out of beef brisket. I have some plain jane beef brisket I got from Kroger's and am hunting for both ways to make pastrami out of it. Both wet brine and just using a rub. Since I see you are a fellow Tennesseean I wanted to ask you :-) I'm in Georgia now but not because I want to beWould help to know what your plans are for it.
