Cowgirl's Pastrami Recipe

The cure...this is enough for 5lbs of meat
5 tablespoons Tender Quick
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 tablespoon ground black pepper
1 teaspoon ground paprika
1 teaspoon ground bay leaves
1 teaspoon ground allspice
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

I mix the cure, rub onto the meat and shake off any excess..
wrap it and let it cure...this batch cured for 5 days.
Then I soak in fresh water for a couple of hours...
Before smoking, I season it with a mixture of garlic, allspice, crushed juniper berries, onion powder, crushed bay leaves and mustard seeds...
Then put it on the smoker with a bit of hickory...
After smoking, I wrap in foil and fill the pouch with beef broth. It steams a bit and makes sure the pastrami is moist.
I let this sit for at least 30 minutes...
I like it with spicy brown mustard, melted cheese and some twangy green tomato dill pickles.

Buckboard bacon is the easiest and best bacon you can make I get the cure from high mountain jerky season www.himtnjerky.com (http://www.himtnjerky.com) it is great stuff you add the cure just rub a pork butt and place in a plastic bag for 10 days then rinse and soak for 1 hour then smoke until it reaches 140 then slice and fry if you slice it thick it tastes more like ham i can get the cure at wholesale sports it costs like 7 bucks for enough cure to do 24 pounds of bacon good luck
