I was planning on smoking a bunch of corned beef as pastrami for derby party. They all had a use by date past May 5th. I started to desalinate on Monday. Ended up in ED on Monday and just home this morning. My son is coming by to help. Any safety issues with the corned beef desalinating for multiple days? I would not think so but do not want to risk anyone getting sick. If there is switching to pulled pork. :)
