Game Day Pastrami

[Noahjb]

Decided a couple days ago I wanted Pastrami to eat while watching my dawgs in the Rose Bowl.

3.5lb corned beef brisket flat (store bought). Soaked 20hrs, rubbed for 24hrs in Mcormicks Pickling Spice.

BGE going at 275 with mix of Apple and Hickory. Just put Pastrami on.

Planning to foil wrap after stall to give it a little steam.

Oh man, what a game. Food turned out great. Pastrami has very nice flavor, good mix of pepper, salt and herb. Probably will grind the spice down a bit next time as it didn’t stick to well, even with mustard baste.

Pulled at 205, which I though was high for IT but wasn’t probe tender until then. Foiled at 180. Even still, it’s a bit dry. Not enough to be dissatisfied but could plan better next time. Maybe pull at 190-195 next time and properly steam?

Either way, I’ll be enjoying this and the dawgs win all week!

Also did some little neck clams in a beer, butter and garlic sauce. Really captured the smoke nicely too as I kept the temps low around 300.

Made some chili/lime shrimp as well.

I’m stuffed btw. The BGE was a champ today.
