I brought it to work and gave to our cook down in the cafeteria. She sliced it up wafer thin on the big commercial slicer, and it is going on the lunch menu. It looked pretty in her cooler/sandwich work station!

I'll get a nice pic of it before I eat some..

That's a nice sandwich bar you have there!

Thanks! Man, it turned out great... I was a little nervous after the chewy bit I got right after the FTC, but the day or so in the fridge (and the paper thin slices) did the trick.

The guy in line behind me saw that, and ordered one for himself.

it has got to feel good seeing something you put together
on the sandwich station at the lunch counter!

Best thing, is that I get to eat free for a few days... ;D

I grabbed another flat at the store yesterday. If this sells well for her, we'll do it up again.

Well Done there Squirt!!

That pastrami looks really good. Starting with corned beef probably saves some time and trouble. Also, experimenting with a smaller hunk of meat is certainly the safest route. I am definitely going to try that! Now, I wonder when it's going on sale. ??? ???

First, that didn't work this year. I expected a sale after St. Patty's day, but, nothing. >:( Second, I can't wait that long. :)
