Pastrami rub
« on: March 14, 2017, 05:31:13 PM »
Ok going to try to make some pastrami from store bought corned beef. I have read alot of posts on this and I know I should soak the salt out of it and rub with pepper and coriander but I never see a ratio of pepper to coriander, if anyone could suggest a good ratio to start with I'd appreciate it very much. Thanks for reading

When I did one last year I soaked in water for 14-16 hours changing the water once or twice.  I used the seasoning packet that came with it for the rub.  Put it in a blender/food processor to make it less coarse, rubbed the corned beef lightly with dijon mustard, just enough to make the rub stick then rubbed it and smoked it like a brisket.  It came out really good!

I use a ratio of 3 to 1...pepper to coriander and do put it on heavy.
