Fail

Pastrami was too dry. Ended up like shoe leather - the perils of using Texas grass-fed beef, especially eye-of-round. There just wasn't enough fat to lubricate it for the required cooking time.

On to bigger and better things. I'm brining a hog head and four trotters as we speak, to make brawn (aka headcheese) this afternoon. Mmm, brawn.
