Pastrami, first time!

[angst]

I am at 160 right now, this thing stalled around 155 for a while . Still planning on 170, then steam tomorrow.

Ok..im going to push it till 195 mark
I tore a small piece off..delicious, but tough

The tendency of brisket is to start getting tender 195-200 so stick it out if your able.

Instead of steaming I am thinking of heating the pastrami in the pressure cooker .... Thoughts ?
