Ingredients

125 ml vegetable oil

2 cloves garlic, crushed

60 ml coarsely ground fresh black pepper

30 ml smoked paprika

10 ml ground coriander

5 ml dry mustard

2.5 ml ground white pepper

1.25 ml cayenne pepper

1.8 kg corned beef brisket

Directions

Step 1

In a small bowl, mix the vegetable oil and crushed garlic. Let it sit for 1 hour. In a large bowl, combine the black pepper, paprika, coriander, dry mustard, white pepper, and cayenne pepper. Set both mixtures aside.

Step 2

Preheat the oven to 110°C.

Step 3

Cover a baking sheet with a large sheet of heavy-duty aluminum foil and coat it with the prepared garlic oil. Place the beef brisket on the oiled foil and brush it with the remaining garlic oil. Completely cover the brisket with the pepper mixture, reserving 15-30 ml.

Step 4

Wrap the brisket, fat-side up, in the foil. Place the double-wrapped brisket, seam-side down, on another sheet of aluminum foil. Wrap it again.

Step 5

Bake the brisket in the preheated oven for 6 hours.

Step 6

Remove the pastrami from the oven and let it cool to room temperature, about 3 hours, without removing the foil.

Step 7

Place the foil-wrapped pastrami in a plastic bag and refrigerate it for 8 to 10 hours.

Step 8

Preheat the oven's broiler and set the oven rack about 15 cm from the heat source. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.

Step 9

Remove the pastrami from the refrigerator, unwrap it, and place it on the prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle the top with the remaining pepper mixture.

Step 10

Place the pastrami under the broiler and cook until the surface browns, for 3 to 4 minutes. Remove the pastrami from the oven and cut it into thin slices, about 3 mm thick.

Step 11

Heat a large skillet over low heat and warm the pastrami slices with a few drops of water until the fat turns translucent, about 5 minutes.
