Ok, I've heard of this & I just thought it was a Canadian version of pastrami.
Well my neighbor & best friend is a Canadian, actually a US citizen now, but still has his connections in Canada. He got this Montreal smoked meat from a place called Lester's. He said that all you Canadians would recognize the name. I gotta say this stuff is fantastic. It's not pastrami, but honestly I like it better than pastrami. disco , I'm sure you must have a recipe on how to make this stuff, cause I really would like to make some for my friend. I doubt it will be as good as what he just brought down, but I'd like to give it a shot. Here is a photo of what he gave us!
He said to eat it hot, ie. steam it in a bag in hot water, but I've been eating it out of the bag cold & it has just an incredible flavor. It's really great to have friends from different places with their own unique food. I know what I'm having for dinner!!! This is some good stuff!!!
