Just getting started

I actually moved here from a place called Bensalem. That is just over the northern boarder from Philly in Lower Bucks County. I was born and raised in the city of Chester which is south of Philly.

For the pastrami, we didn't get the juniper berries in time to put them in the brine. But I have it wrapped up with them in the rub right now. Guess better late than never, huh?

A friend of mine from California came up with that recipe. Knowing the high Asian population out there, you might not be far off with the Chinese pastrami bit.

Maybe we should change the title to California Pastrami. LOL

We're getting a HUGE Asian population here with the casinos. Great shopping now for Asian spices and such.

Did you smash the berries first? Sometimes I throw them in this little blender chopper thingy I've got but mostly I use a morter and pestle.

Whole berries are okay in the brine but smashed ones are best on the rub.
