Good day eh
I am considering making some Montreal smoked meat.
I am hopelessly addicted. I believe Shwartz's in Montreal should be a national treasure !
Has anybody done one? How were the results? I don't expect Shwartz quality results even though I am considering asking someone I know in Montreal to drop by the store and pick me up their spices and send it to me.
Its a lot of work to do one of these, I have had my smoker less than 1 week but I do to bed at night and wake up in the morning dreaming of smoked meat. I am droling now as I type this.
Do a search of the forum for Montreal Smoked Meat. I definitely remember a thread a while back about it but I can't recall who originated it. There is a recipe in the thread along with a lot of commentary.

I've made Montreal Smoked Meat several times, but like any food I found it has a wide variation of how to prepare it. Some suggest to cure it, others state it is never cured. I feel if it is cured you may as well call it pastrami.
After a lot of research I found an uncured version of the recipe, by Rob Rainford a Canadian with Jamaican roots; that's got to work. You can find the recipe on the forum, but the recipe site has the updated version.

Thanks for this. I am going to try it once I figure out where I can buy brisket in these parts.
I do watch Rob Rainier on Food TV and sometimes see him on the train on my way home from work !
I might be turning into a RR groupie now or at least buy one of his books.
Thanks again, appreciate the direction

I haven't seen any of his shows in awhile. If we both shared the same train, I'm sure he would be looking for alternate transportation, because I would be bugging him for tips every second of the commute.
I forgot what station in my area had him on. He is amazing to watch. I don't know how he can manage all those grills at the same time. His recipes are great, I also plagiarized his pork belly recipe and adapted it for the Bradley.
