Hi Dave,


 RH> left overs. Yesterday we froze a lot of pulled pork in meal size bags
 RH> and canned 4 pints of "baked" beans. Good eating over the winter.

 DD> It was really good. What leftovers??? We have dogs.  Bv)=

 RH> We don't have dogs and this was left over from what he'd cooked for the
 RH> post. Usually there's about 30+/- members out; there were only about 15
 RH> so there was a lot of food left.

 DD> Pastrami was the "Food of the day" for today. And I've not had a
 DD> good hit of pastrami for a while. So .......

 RH> Hmmmmmmmmmmm, I think we will need to make some this year; I don't
 RH> recall seen any in either the big freezer or the fridge freezer. Couple
 RH> more months and corned beef will be on sale, time to stock up and make
 RH> a few pastramis.

 DD> Corn beef? Or brisket for making corned beef? This area goes nuts on
 DD> brisket around Easter/Passoverr season. I wish we had a good
 DD> stand-alone Jewish deli here. We had one for a while but when the
 DD> building he was in got "urban renewed" out of existence he didn't feel
 DD> like starting over
 DD> in another location. I think the both of his sons tod him they didn't
 DD> see running a deli as their life's work so he packed it in.

We start with a cut of corned beef, soak it overnight to draw the salt
out of it and go from there. A rub of coriander, pepper and (I think)
garlic goes on it, then smoked. IIRC, Dale Shipp gave us the original
recipe. No deli around here so we make our own pastrami.
