Try this with your next pastrami!

Instead of trimming all the fat off of your corned beef before you set it in the smoker to make pastrami.... smoke it with all the fat on... then trim it off after your done smoking it. Then.... fry it up in a pan like bacon. It is awesome on a baked potato or topping a salad or in some scrambled eggs. It fries up nice and crunchy like bacon and is off the chart full of flavor.

Thank you for that! I really like this idea!

Not a bad idea Dave, I'm sure it would be really tasty too but I don't think I could do it.
Don't get me wrong, I love most things smoked but certain areas I just don't know...
like pork rinds...I know, I know, lots of folks love them but I just can't bring myself to eat fried pork skin...
