Just thought this recipe needed its own thread. It’s all over HT with great reviews but this should make easy to find in the future. I started 10lbs of elk roasts this morning in prep for St Patty’s Day weekend.

I’m going to get some going myself.

Just a FYI, if you make it according to the directions, the brine smells really good. If you take a shortcut and buy the premix McCormick pickling seasoning, it is very heavy on cloves and cinnamon. I threw it in the trash, spend the extra 15 bucks and get the actual ingredients.

The coriander is a bit heavy for my taste, so I do 1-1/2T of pepper and only 1/2T of coriander.

Hank’s pastrami is pretty good too.

I decided to do pastrami. It’s seasoned in the cure and vaccum sealed. Sunday will be the magic day!

I often mix / match elements between the two. Wet brine from corned venison recipe and then finish in the smoker per pastrami recipe turns out pretty good. Sort of depends whether I plane to mostly use it for sandwiches or breakfast hash.
