I find pastrami roast to be a lot of fun, it’s a little bit different from the regular cuts I grew up with and it’s so flavorful (I often put one on top of my cholent. It’s unreal!) I bought this in Gourmet Glatt and they have stickers they put on meats educating you as to how best to make them. The sticker on their pastrami roast reads to add balsamic vinegar and brown sugar. I took their advice but added a bunch more ingredients to bring it up yet another notch.
1 (3-lb./1- and 1/2-kg.) pastrami roast
1 tablespoon Bartenura Olive Oil
1 large Spanish or Vidalia onion, sliced
1 tablespoon Haddar Dijon Mustard
1 tablespoon sauerkraut
2 tablespoons Bartenura Balsamic Vinegar
1/2 cup dark brown sugar
Cook pastrami in its bag according to your butcher’s instructions (about two hours in a 350 degrees Fahrenheit / 180 degrees Celsius oven). Allow to cool, then slice.
To make sauce, heat olive oil in a frying pan over low heat. Add onion and sauté until golden. Add remaining ingredients and let simmer for about five minutes. Pour over sliced roast when ready to serve.

Made this for Purim seuda for a huge crowd, It was devoured down to the very last slice. I didn’t even get to taste it!
In It’s bag? Can you explain “cook in it’s bag” ? I have never seen that here in Baltimore. What is the alternative for meat that is not packaged in a special bag?
You can cook it tightly covered with parchment paper.
