Making your own corned beef or pastrami is a lot easier than you might think, and much less expensive that store bought. Plan ahead and make it yourself for a real treat.

Brine Ingredients:
1 gallon water
2 cups kosher salt (or 5 tablespoons Morton Tender Quick for the pretty pink cured color)
1/2 cup brown sugar
3 cloves garlic, crushed
2 tablespoons pickling spices
4 bay leaves
