Before the 20th century, one of the only ways to preserve perishable foods was to pickle or dry them. The method for making Pastrami, like so many other cured meats, was invented during this time and its delicious flavor has kept it around for centuries since. Often confused with corned beef pastrami is very similar preparation, but decidedly different. While corned beef is essentially beef pickled in a very salty brine, pastrami is corned beef that’s been smoked. This additional step imbues pastrami with a smokey complexity that makes it a universal favorite.
Sourced from premium Australian Wagyu cattle, our pastrami comes from 100% heritage Wagyu. By starting with truly superior meat, our whole Wagyu pastrami round is transported to a new level of delicious flavor and juicy, tender succulence. Though made from one of the leanest portions of beef available, when cut from the heavily marbled meat of Wagyu cattle, even the leanest of cuts becomes buttery soft and flavorful. Brined in a heavily spiced liquid of salt, sugar, black pepper, cloves, coriander, bay leaves, juniper berries, and dill, before being smoked, this initial step not only enhances the flavor of the meat and lends its own warming characteristics but it also helps maintain moisture in the pastrami throughout the cooking process.
