Directions
Montreal Smoked Meat Sandwich is based on slow cooked beef covered in Schwartz’s steak rub. It will remind you of the classic New York pastrami bagel but has a slightly different twist. I found two different recipes for this, the first one took a number of days to make and the second one only 7 minutes!
Given that time is precious I went for the quicker option, however I did create my own smoked meat thanks to Waitrose’s new 30 minute pre cooked meals. My elder child has suddenly decided he does not like ‘pizza’ cheese, only cheddar cheese, so these little sandwiches were not too popular with him, however the rest of us scoffed them.
If you can source your own pastrami they are a delicious quick lunch snack. For the long recipe check out Lady & Pups or for a considerably shorter one try Alisha Enid.
