MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06 Title: Turkey Pastrami -- 01 Categories: Poultry, Herbs, Marinades, Rubs Yield: 2 Pounds 2 1/2 lb Turkey thigh meat 1 qt Water 1/2 c Brown sugar 1/2 c Kosher salt 1/3 c + 1 ts dry juniper berries; - crushed 1/4 c Black pepper; coarse ground 1 tb Whole black peppercorns 6 cl Garlic; crushed 2 ts Thyme 1 ts Whole cloves 3 Turkish bay leaves Turkey pastrami is a low fat alternative to beef pastrami and it tastes just as good. This method is easier than making your own beef pastrami. In a saucepan combine the water, brown sugar and salt. Bring to a boil, stirring until the salt and sugar are dissolved. Remove from heat and stir in the 1 tablespoon of whole black peppercorns, thyme, bay leaves, whole cloves and garlic. Allow to cool. Place turkey meat in a nonreactive container and pour cooled mixture over it. Make sure that the turkey is completely covered. Cover and refrigerate for 48 hours. Prepare smoker for a smoke at about 220ºF/105ºC for 2 1/2 hours. Combine juniper berries and coarsely ground black pepper. Remove turkey meat from brine mixture and rinse under cold water. Pat dry with paper towels and cover with juniper berry-black pepper rub. Make sure you press the rub into the surface of the turkey. Place turkey in smoker, skin side down and smoke for 2 to 2 1/2 hours, or until it reaches an internal temperature of 165ºF/75ºC. Remove from smoker and allow to cool. The turkey pastrami will continue to gain flavor the longer you let it rest. You can wrap it tightly and refrigerate for up to 1 week.
