Cure #1, Garlic powder, Kosher salt, White vinegar, cracked pepper, ground mustard, ground cloves, sugar. Gotta find some juniper berries some time.

when i did my pastrami from scratch, i turned the flat and point (seperated from a packer), into pastrami...........i found my next one, will be the flat as pastrami, and the point, turned into burnt ends........its a bit fatty for me either as a corned beef, or a strami.....
