you see that grain in your meat? my boy's was smooth, hardly any grain at all
Way tastier than corned beef IMHO. Corned beef gives you the "cured" flavor. Pastrami adds significant spice and smoke to that cured flavor.I don't believe I ever had pastrami. Added it to the list. I imagine it is similar to corned beef?
That could "possibly" be in the curing. When I bought a store cured brisket and did them side by side with my own cure, there was less grain, and slight bubbles in the store bought. I suspect they used pressure to speed the curing process in packaged corned beef.you see that grain in your meat? my boy's was smooth, hardly any grain at allthat's what i meant by dense
he mentioned he left the brisket a bit longer in the brine than recommended - i make sure to tell him to stick to the recommendations next time!That could "possibly" be in the curing.

I dont have enough experience to say whether the cure was too long/short, or possibly wrong ratios of salts, but the cure is a definite possibility. I strictly followed the calculator on amazingribs for my cure parameters, albeit at the high nitrite PPM end.
