I've read some different methods for cooking/ baking pickled pastrami roasts. I'm just wondering for those people that cook pickled roasts a few times to get the salty taste out, do you do that with pastrami roast as well? I'm wondering if so, what happens when the roast is baked?

Don't cook it.
Place it in a size appropriate pan. Add just 1/3 of an inch of water. Cover and bake at 300 for 4 hours (for 4 lb roast). Serve hot.

So it won't be too salty? And what about freezing it? Will it be good from freezer? I'm trying to get a head start on yom tov...

It's like pastrami from the deli counter. Is that too salty for you?
I'm sure you can freeze it. Maybe undercook it a bit since you'll be reheating it.

Thanks for your help. I'm just wondering why when cooking it's recommended to cook three times to get salty taste out and not by baking

From what I’ve been told (by someone who worked at a butcher counter), cooking with water will make it less salty , and method stovetop vs oven doesn’t make a difference in this regard. The more water, the more salt will be minimized.
I personally always bake

The recipe I use calls to rinse off under running water most of the pickling spice. Then cook it in a pan 3/4 full with water 3 hrs or so.
I freeze my pastrami. Not in liquid. I freeze the liquid separately. When I defrost, I slice the meat, and use the defrosted liquid as a sauce base- mixed with ketchup or duck sauce if I want sweet or whatever. I pour the sauce over the sliced pastrami to warm on yom tov.
I've never tried serving pastrami without a sauce. It may be a bit soggy.

It's not always the case with washing it down or boiling it up a few times. I learned by try and fail that it has to do with where you buy it. I used to buy by one butcher that if I didn't wash it down it was inedible. Now the butcher where I buy it's just the opposite. If I wash it down its tasteless. Their way of pickling it either isn't strong either they rinse it before packaging. I dunno I never asked.
