- the short recipe is: brine it for a week, then smoke to an internal temp of 145. you should find a lot of recipes online -- nm - Peglegpete Apr 1, 13:15 5
  - you will need pink salt or prague powder in the brine so it doesn't turn brown during cooking. this salt is why corned beef & pastrami stay pink -- nm - Peglegpete Apr 1, 13:17 4
    - ah, nice. ok, this is my new project, thank you :) -- nm - colin Apr 1, 13:19 3
      - cheapest on ebay. their #5 is almost the same as a lot of others charge for #1 -- (link) - Peglegpete Apr 1, 14:11
      - AND, even though you may use only half a cup of it a year, buy a 5# bag on ebay it's cheap and lasts forever -- nm - Peglegpete Apr 1, 13:21 1
        
        I think I paid 4 or 5 for a small pouch at BASS. surprised you can't find it in the spice aisle at grocery (or even gross sherry) stores -- nm - zeitgeist Apr 1, 13:56
