My first Pastrami

[dennis s]

Hi, I'm going to tri my hand at pastrami. I bought a 2.5 pound corned beef brisket. How long can I expect it to take to reach the desired temp of about 190? Is there a prefered rub for doing a pastrami? Any special seasoning? Any suddestions would be great.

Thanks

Here is one that was posted here by Rivet. I just made it and it is real good.

I started from a brisket, made my own corned beef. You can search the forum for pastrami and find lots of ideas.
