    Smoked Pastrami Help

    Hi all,
    So last week I brined a 6 pound flat which I cut in half designating one half for corned beef using Meatheads recipe. Turned out amazing. Planned on doing Meatheads smoked pastrami next weekend but I'm going to be away.
    My question is how long is too long for the brisket to be in the brine?
    Will be kind of an expensive pastrami if I have to take Friday off to smoke this thang.

    We usually don't recommend going much over 25% extra time in the cure. You can leave it in the fridge for 3 days or so though before smoking.

      Thank you. I'll take it out tomorrow, rinse, rub, and chill. Smoke Friday night

        Does "rinse" include some period of desalination?
