Turkey Pastrami Questions

[Jeni Huelskamp]

I am preparing to smoke the turkey pastrami in the How To Grill cookbook. The recipe talks about letting the turkey get cold after smoking and slicing for a lunch meat. Has anyone eaten this as a warm dish? Also, have you smoked it at the lower temp like the recipe says or at the higher temp that is more often recommended on this forum?

I have been meaning to try that pastrami.I don't see any reason why you can't eat it warm. That's the way I was going to eat it. If I changed anythig it would be to cut way back on the salt and I probably wouldn't use any paprika. For some reason he seems to use a lot of salt in his recipes.
