I'm making Ruhlman's corned beef via two brisket flats. I plan on smoking/steaming one for pastrami, but that's not the point.
The recipe calls for a 3 day bath in the pickle. I just realized that my schedule will not allow me to remove it for ~10 days total.
Am I safe here, or do I need to pluck them from the briny deep and shove them in the freezer sooner? Was hoping to take one from the pickle and toss it onto the WSM next Friday...They've been in the bath since Tuesday.
