Default Pastrami smoke type?

What kind of wood is traditional when smoking a brisket for pastrami?

Thanks, James

I've done a good bit of research on this and concluded that there
is no single traditional smoke type. I usually just use apple.

If someone knows of one I'd love to hear about it too.

Interesting article he
http://www.geocities.com/old_soothsa...nyt030430.html
mentions a mixture of hickory and apple, and makes it sound like there's
probably not an iron-clad tradition in the matter.

Douglas, thanks for the link. Yes, I've seen that article. It's
good to see I'm not the only one interested in such things.

I've gone back into old cookbooks from various sources in
search of an answer. Also talked to a lot of old Jewish folk
Still looking for the definitive answer, and I suspect there
may not be one.

Guess we'll have to settle for a good pastrami sandwich now and
then...one of life's finer pleasures!

James, I've tried this (with not much success) and as I understand you need
to use a corned beef brisket.
