Beef Pastrami Recipe

  American Beef

Ingredients:
6 lb Beef brisket
1/2 c Salt
1 ts Saltpeter
4 tb Black pepper; freshly ground
2 tb Brown sugar; firmly packed
3 tb Mixed whole pickling spice
3 ts Ginger; ground

Directions:
Mix the Salt, Saltpeter, spices and Sugar together and then rub into the Beef forcing it into the meat. Set into a pan, cover closely, and put into the refrigerator or a very cool place. Turn every few days for 3 weeks, then smoke over a barbecue pit or in a smokehouse -- over very low heat for 4 hours. It will keep well for some time in a cool place. To prepare, cover with cold Water and cook until tender.
The length of cooking time depends on how long it was smoked.
