Typically pastrami is brined, meaning it is soaked in salty water, whereas smoked meat is given a dry rub with curing salt. We all know that inferior meats need water to gain flavour. The salt dry-rub condenses and synthesizes the smoked meat flavour to be far superior. A direct result of the spices used in each deli meat is the flavour. A darker and more rich flavour is brought out of the brisket from the smoked meat rub, while pastrami meat is sweeter.
No man or woman should ever be subjected to sweet meat, unless it's candied bacon. Dark, red, and deliciously meaty, the colour of smoked meat is far superior to the rosy pink of patrami.
Beauty is in the eye of beholder, but still, when it comes to meat, we like a more natural hue. Don't believe me that the hue and colour makes a difference?

Montreal-style delis have been popping up in New York, the original home of the American Jewish deli where pastrami gained its fame, and they have been doing incredibly well. One example is the deli Mile End wonder where they got that name? One taste and they were hooked on the better deli meat.
No food post can escape the poutine factor, which basically boils down to: will it poutine? We sure as hell know smoked meat can , and it is awesome and delicious. Pastrami has yet to make the poutine-plunge as far as we know and until then, smoked meat will forever remain as top deli meat solely for that reason. Fall means cooler weather so you may not be spending as much time outdoors. That makes this the perfect time to stock up on plant friends to get you through the next several months, and there's a huge end-of-season sale happening at Montreal's iconic Dragon Flowers to help you do that.

Open , were invited to the Met Gala on Monday night and looked absolutely stunning in their outfits. The world-famous Met Gala, which is a party for the rich and famous to show off their most ridiculous outfits, was made all the better by the presence of the two rising tennis stars.
As the future of tennis, it was no surprise that these two got an invite to the illustrious Met Gala. Compared to their counterparts Naomi Osaka and Serena Williams, the two young tennis stars from Quebec were dressed rather modestly in matching black and white outfits that were more class than sass.
No word on whether or not they planned to have coordinating outfits, but if not, it was a happy accident. Despite both of them being disappointed in the U. Open at the end of it all, the two tennis players put themselves on the map as the rising stars to watch. Leylah's tournament was particularly inspiring as she was one of the youngest-ever tennis players to reach the U. Open Final. The event, billed as "Montreal's projection mapping festival," is a celebration of digital art.
The block party will feature monumental digital creations cast on the surrounding buildings, illuminating the skatepark as electronic music plays.
Local restaurant Nakamichi will be serving Japanese fried chicken and pastries over the course of the electric event. Digital artworks will include work by artist Delphine Dussoubs Dalkhafine and minute-long projections by artists from Quebec and around the world, as well as what the festival describes as "works improvised by creators and members of the public [unfolding] in real-time.

They put it on their pizza, their poutine, and their superior bagels. Skip to main content Eat. Make Fun. As for the rub, Sax goes on: "Generally pastrami is just spiced with coriander and black pepper, and often sugar.
It's generally black pepper, coriander seed, more garlic, and sometimes mustard seed, bay leaf, and other aromatics. Schwartz originally delivered smoked meat by horse and buggy for other wholesalers before realizing he could make a better and cheaper product himself by not spending money on chemical preservatives. Schwartz's begins their smoked meat by marinating raw brisket with a secret blend of spices for 10 to 12 days.
They smoke the brisket for eight to nine hours and steam them for another three before slicing them by hand and serving them on rye bread with mustard.
As Silva put it, "by being cheap, [Schwartz] created something that we still do the same way! Caplansky noted one key difference between his smoked meat and Schwartz's. Montreal banned wood smoking in restaurants many, many years ago. So Schwartz's use an old electric smoker and the smoke isn't the same part of the flavor profile. Caplansky uses a wood smoker to produce what he proudly calls "Toronto smoked meat. Sax and Sietsema, who both consider Schwartz's smoked meat plenty smoky, point out how a brisket's rendering fat produces its own smoke, flavoring the meat in its own way.
We've already documented the pastrami-making process at Katz's , New York's pastrami top dog. It's similar to the process at Schwartz's but with some subtle differences. Katz's uses navel for pastrami and brisket for corned beef. Both meats are cured, or corned, for about three weeks before the navels are wood-smoked for 48 to 72 hours at very low heat.
The rub, which consists of garlic, salt, pepper, and coriander, goes on right before smoking. Afterwards the smoked navels are boiled for several hours, steamed for 30 minutes, and sliced by hand. Since then, Mile End's modern take on traditional Jewish cooking has been a resounding success, the introductory deli to a new generation of New Yorkers.
That includes their Montreal-style smoked meat, which is part of a menu that managing partner Joel Tietolman describes as a way "to bring about, in a new way, the old traditions that have kind of faded. Mile End starts their smoked meat with whole brisket that production chef Josh Sobel trims to maintain consistent fat and juiciness in the end product. After that the briskets are dry cured with a mix of garlic, salt, pink curing salt, and other spices.
After 12 days, the briskets receive some extra rub before going into a wood smoker for 12 to 14 hours.
