I normally get Montreal smoked meat when my brother comes back to Toronto. He gets the smoked meat just before he leaves and it's almost always dry and under salted. Obviously the fresh hot smoked meat is the best, but I don't live in Montreal.
But now Schwartz have came up with a solution - vaccum sealed packaging. I love it! I don't know if it's a new idea. Of course it's still not as good as eating it Montreal, but it's a vast improvement from before. Well done.
