I like it raw in a salad.

That works. I also like it in Giardiniera.

I gotta say I am finding some of these meatless alternatives to be interesting. I will at least try them. The impossible burger looks worth a try.

Dude, stay far away from soy. Vegan alternatives aren't always as healthy as the Cucumber Pizza. Typical processed food.

I am not saying it will replace meat. I am just saying I would try it.

I made my own corned beef from scratch this month. Broke down a whole packers brisket and made two corned beef pieces. I froze the best part untouched to make pastrami with soon. Each piece was close to 5+ pounds.

I am still going back and forth with this guy

No such thing as too much goalie depth.

I know. I am actually trying to avoid soy since it might be linked to my tits I can't get rid of. Down over 20 pounds now. Another 15-20 to go.

Me either. I ate at panera one day and it was on a sandwich. I looked it up and now I buy big jars of it.

You might not approve since I brined it with pink salt #1. I wanted that bright coloration though. It was awesome. One I used brown sugar and pickling spices. The other I used pickling spices and whole garlic.

I definitely stink when I eat it

How long do you leave it in the brine? Or whatever the concoction is.

Yep, soy is estrogenic, not to mention the vast majority survives Agent Orange.
Also avoid bottled water. BPA was discovered to be an estrogen replacement in the 1800's. Later they discovered it made plastic soft, so let's put in the food supply.
Have to get my tinfoil hat, be right back.

That ranges a bit. I cooked mine on consecutive days. One was in for 7-8 days and the other was 8-9 I believe. Both were brined through since the color was perfect. Uneven cuts or short brine times you might end up with gray areas in the middle. Excess fat can also inhibit the brining process.

I used one 2 gallon ziplock per brisket piece which was way too much liquid. I will use the same bag next time and halve the liquid. just need to make sure there is no air in the bag and give them a flip 2-3 times a day.

Woah, woah, woah. Asparagus is delicious.
