Pastrami

[jc1947]

I recently was gifted a cooked corn beef. Is there any way to turn it into corn beef?

Was it already corn beef when you got it? I’m confused

Yes it was fully cooked when I got it.

Sounds like it was already corned beef.
I'm confused as well....

I’m thinking he means pastrami as that’s the title

I'm guessing you want to make it into Pastrami. Yes, you can.

It’s already cooked though?

Smart fella. Good thinking.

It’s already corned beef.
To make pastrami, you need to smoke it, but that is traditionally done from a raw state. You could re-cook it with smoke to IT of 203*-ish but it won’t be the same as a real pastrami. Nothing saying it won’t be delicious though.

I'd be interested into how it turns out.
