I have recently taken an interesting in the cuisine of New Mexico, and this -while not an actual "New Mexico Recipe,"is one attempt to get my feet wet where some of the basic flavor profiles are concerned. I didn't follow any formal recipe for this; I simply threw it together...I'll give it the (very original) name...
Montana Enchilada Lasagna
1 pound ground beef
Salt and pepper, to taste
1 onion, diced
Minced garlic to taste
1 envelope of enchilada seasoning
1 cup water or stock

Regarding the post immediately preceding this, the pastramă turned out really well!
It ended up in the dry brine longer than I intended, but that is of no discernible consequence. When I had the opportunity, I dusted it with onion powder, garlic powder, and cracked black pepper. I then allowed it to dry slightly overnight in the refrigerator, then smoked it the next day with applewood.
After a generous application of smoke, I allowed it to further air-cure until it had reached what seemed like the desired ..read more

Posted: 21 June 2023 at 11:50
I had a small, boneless deer roast that needed to be used, so I started a new pastramă, using a very similar profile to the one I used previously.
The roast was just a hair under 1 pound, so in addition to the 1 tablespoon of TenderQuick, the cure consists of
1 tablespoon of local raw honey
1 generous tablespoon of crushed and minced garlic
1 tablespoon of Hungarian paprika
A heaping 1/2 teaspoon of freshly ground black pepper
A scant 1/2 teaspoon of thyme
1/4 teaspoon of ground coriander
1/4 teaspoon of ..read more
