Made some venison backstrap pastrami.

Posted by LSUballs on 12/24/25 at 4:21 pm
Followed Hank Shaw's recipe. Turned out good

Recipe

Trimmed backstrap of sliver skin. Was about a 2.5lb strap.


Dry brine w/ cure rubbed in



Sealed in a big ziplock for 6 days



Took out, rinsed/soaked and rubbed with cracked pepper and coriander



On the offset smoker with oak and pecan. 250deg until 145 internal










Surprised how well it turned out really. Not dry like I thought it might be. Will make some killer sandwiches/ruebens this weekend.

Cpt. Avery's in Monroe. Or Randall's Cpt. Avery's as it's now called. They will have the shrimp and oysters. Won't have fresh (live) crab, but will have fresh crab meat and frozen gumbo crabs.

Also, there is a Chinese restaurant in Tallulah that gets fresh shrimp and fresh blue crab from time to time. It's called Chopsticks.

I am assuming the bottoms are usually flooded and can't be hunted a lot of times.



The river doesn't effect the deer hunting that often. Takes a pretty high river
At least they keepin it real tho.

Why?
When I was a kid we would play wiffle ball in the back yard with ghost men. Maybe that's where they live.
