Pastramized Beef

Recipe Ingredients

6 lbs	2724g / 96oz	Beef brisket
1/2 cup	118ml	Salt
1 teaspoon	5ml	Saltpeter
4 tablespoons	60ml	Black pepper - freshly ground
2 tablespoons	30ml	Brown sugar - firmly packed
3 tablespoons	45ml	Mixed whole pickling spice
3 teaspoons	15ml	Ginger - ground

Recipe Instructions

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.

A large goose may be also treated this way to make a delicious treat.
