Generally a pastrami Spice Mix is made with whole ingredients. I use ground ingredients so they penetrate the vegetables better.

Notes
This is a Snappy Sheep recipe.This recipe calls for hickory salt. I found organic smoked salt at San Francisco Salt Company. The salt is actually smoked and not made with artificial flavors. You can substitute liquid smoke in your brine if you prefer.
