interesting

 

what I made is what I consider to be CB.

 

I grew up in CA and im wondering if there is an Eastern view that sees CB as something close to what Id call pastrami

 

not necessarily great pastrami , but a cow what wandered in that general neighborhood.

 

Might be true.

 

The Eastern deli CB I've had has some flavor in the pastrami spectrum...not smoked of course...and a somewhat leaner meat.

 

On the other hand, the stuff I made is probably what the Irish would've had for CB, if indeed they had CB at all.  Meant for eating with cabbage and potatoes and not for reuben making
