You might look into Boars Head meats. I wasn't able to find any information as
to what they use for preservatives in their deli meats like roast beef, ham,
turkey, corned beef or pastrami, but from experience they are definitely not
overloaded with crap. One pays dear - 9.00 a lb for Roast Beef, but it tastes
just like home roasted beef, possibly better, and I can get 3-4 great
sandwiches out of a pound.
Down here where I live in Florida, just about every deli and restaurant serve
Boar's Head products. Only the stupidmarkets carry the injected garbage, though
Publix does carry a full line of Boar's Head, which include some pretty decent
cured meats - my favorites include spicy capicolla and genoa salami. Addictive.
