Pastrami is a popular deli meat made from a highly seasoned cut of smoked meat--usually beef. To make pastrami, one usually begins with a slab of uncooked meat. That meat is typically first pickled in a thick, salty, brine solution, which creates, when using red meat, what is known as corned beef.
Make careful observations of the meat during the whole process. And make sure that every inch of the meat reaches 165 degrees F/75 degrees C before you remove it from the smoker. Pastrami is kind of a hobby, experiment to find out what works best for you.
