So what makes Ugly Drum pastrami so much better than everyone else's? It was created as a personal passion project by Erik Black as a hybridized technique, combining his homemade classic Jewish pastrami brine with Texas-style pit-smoking. That means whole USDA Prime grade briskets, brined for several days, then pit-smoked over low, indirect heat with whole logs of oak and pecan wood for at least 10 hours. Previously available only out of Erik's oil drum smoker (the "Ugly Drum") at Smorgasburg LA, this Texas pastrami with a cult following is now just a click away, available as a whole smoked pastrami brisket, or as part of a reuben sandwich kit with rye bread, creamy coleslaw, Russian dressing and Swiss cheese.

Ugly Drum IS BACK! We are extremely excited to be able to relaunch Ugly Drum for shipping just in time for the Holidays! The pastrami will be available for mail order in limited quantities via Goldbelly (https://www.goldbelly.com/ugly-drum) and at Cofax coffee shop in their breakfast burritos. I made the difficult choice to close down during the pandemic but after nearly a year off I have decided to team up with old friends to bring the world's best pastrami back. Make sure to get your Hannukah & Holiday orders in early before we sell out! Stay tuned for more exciting Ugly Drum news to come in 2023 and make sure to follow us on instagram!
