Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F.
- Place the corned beef in a colander in the sink and rinse well under cold running water.
- Place the corned beef in a large Dutch oven with a tight-fitting lid; add the water, bay leaves, peppercorns, allspice, and cloves. Bring to a boil, uncovered, and skim off any scum that rises to the surface. Cover and transfer pan to the oven, and braise until very tender, about 3 hours and 45 minutes.
- Transfer the corned beef to a cutting board and cover tightly with foil to keep warm. Add the cabbage and potatoes to the cooking liquid and bring to a boil. Lower the heat and simmer until the vegetables are tender, about 20 minutes.
- Using a slotted spoon, transfer the cabbage to a large platter. Slice the corned beef across the grain of the meat into thin slices. Lay the slices over the cabbage and surround it with the potatoes. Ladle some of the hot cooking liquid over the corned beef and season with pepper. Serve immediately with the mustard or horseradish sauce.
- For the hash: In large bowl, place 1 cup of the potatoes and mash with a fork. Add the remaining 1 cup potatoes, corned beef, cooking liquid, onion, garlic, mustard, thyme, and nutmeg. Season generously with pepper and mix well. Store in the refrigerator overnight.
- Remove the hash mixture from the refrigerator and stir in the parsley.
- Heat 1/4 cup butter in a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. When the foaming subsides, add the hash mixture and cook, stirring, for 30 seconds. Using a spatula, press the mixture down into a round cake the size of the skillet. Cook, shaking the skillet occasionally, for 4 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium and continue cooking, moving the skillet occasionally, until the underside is browned and crusty, about 6 minutes more.
- To flip the hash, set a plate the size of the skillet on top of the pan. Invert the pan so the hash falls on to the plate as an intact cake. Invert the hash onto another plate, cooked-side up. Return the skillet to the heat, raise to medium-high, and heat the remaining 1 tablespoon butter. When the foaming subsides, slide the hash into the skillet cooked-side up. Cook, shaking the skillet occasionally, for 3 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium and cook, shaking the skillet occasionally, until the underside is browned and crispy, about 5 minutes more. Set aside covered with foil to keep warm.
- For the eggs: While the corned beef hash is cooking, combine the water, vinegar and salt in a large skillet and bring to a simmer. Crack the eggs into separate cups. Carefully slide the eggs into the skillet and cook, turning occasionally with a spoon, until firm, about 3 to 5 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, remove the eggs and transfer to kitchen towel. Lightly dab the eggs with a kitchen towel to remove any excess water.
- Divide the hash among plates and top with the poached eggs.
- In a small bowl, mix together the mayonnaise, sour cream, horseradish, zest, and 2 teaspoons salt. Season generously with pepper to taste. Refrigerate the horseradish sauce for at least 30 minutes before serving.

Steps:
- Place the corned beef, pepper, allspice, bay leaves and salt into a large 8-quart pot along with 3-quarts of water. Cover and set over high heat. Bring to a boil, decrease the heat to low and cook, at a low simmer for 2 1/2 hours.
- After 2 1/2 hours add the carrots, onions, potatoes and celery. Return to a simmer and cook uncovered for 15 minutes. After 15 minutes, add the cabbage and cook for an additional 15 to 20 minutes until the potatoes and cabbage are tender. Remove the bay leaves and serve immediately.
- Place the water into a large 6 to 8 quart stockpot along with salt, sugar, saltpeter, cinnamon stick, mustard seeds, peppercorns, cloves, allspice, juniper berries, bay leaves and ginger. Cook over high heat until the salt and sugar have dissolved. Remove from the heat and add the ice. Stir until the ice has melted. If necessary, place the brine into the refrigerator until it reaches a temperature of 45 degrees F. Once it has cooled, place the brisket in a 2-gallon zip top bag and add the brine. Seal and lay flat inside a container, cover and place in the refrigerator for 10 days. Check daily to make sure the beef is completely submerged and stir the brine.
- After 10 days, remove from the brine and rinse well under cool water. Place the brisket into a pot just large enough to hold the meat, add the onion, carrot and celery and cover with water by 1-inch. Set over high heat and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low, cover and gently simmer for 2 1/2 to 3 hours or until the meat is fork tender. Remove from the pot and thinly slice across the grain.

Steps:
- Combine all the brine ingredients, except the brisket, in a large non-reactive bowl. Add the brisket (you may have to cut it into 2 pieces) and rub the spice mix into the meat. Pour cold water over until the meat is covered. Weight the brisket down with a small plate so that it is completely submerged; cover and refrigerate. The meat can be brined overnight or as long as 10 days. The longer the brining the more pickled the meat.
- Heat the oven to 300 degrees F.
- Heat a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat and add the olive oil. Add the onion, carrots, celery, garlic, marjoram, and bay leaves and cook until starting to soften, about 10 minutes. Remove the meat from the brine and rinse it well. Set the meat on top of the vegetables and add water to just cover the meat. Bring to a boil skimming any foam that surfaces. Reduce the heat to a simmer, place the lid on the pot, and cook for 15 minutes. Add the cabbage pieces, cover, and put it into the oven; cook for 3 hours.
- Remove the meat, cover it with foil, and let it rest for 20 minutes. Cut the fat off the corned beef, slice the meat against the grain, and serve it in shallow bowls with the cabbage wedges, some cooking liquid, and the Herbed Root Vegetables.
- Put the olive oil and butter into a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the vegetables and toss to coat them well with the fat; season with salt and pepper. Add 1 cup water and bring to a boil. Lower the heat to a simmer, cover the pot, and cook until the vegetables are tender, about 20 minutes.
- Meanwhile, make the Herb Butter by combining the soft butter and herbs together; season with some salt and pepper.
- To serve, spread some Herb Butter in the bottom of a bowl. Add the hot vegetables and dot with more Herb Butter. Moisten with some of the cooking liquid and serve.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Unwrap the brisket and place it fat-side up in a large baking dish. If the brisket came with a spice packet, sprinkle it over the top, then sprinkle on 3 tablespoons pepper and rub it in. Cover the dish with heavy-duty foil and bake for two and a half hours, then uncover and continue baking until the brisket is very, very tender (almost falling apart!) and a fork inserted into the meat goes in easily, about 1 more hour. Remove from the oven and cover loosely with foil to keep warm.
- While the brisket is resting, make the balsamic reduction for the cabbage: Stir the balsamic vinegar with the sugar in a small saucepan over medium-high heat and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium low and simmer until the mixture is reduced by two-thirds and thick like syrup, 10 to 12 minutes. Set aside.
- Make the cabbage: Increase the oven temperature to 400 degrees. Cut the cabbage into 8 wedges. Working in two batches if necessary, heat the olive oil in a large heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Add the cabbage and sear on both cut sides until the cabbage gets as much color as possible, about 1 minute per side. Use a spatula to transfer the cabbage to a rack placed on a rimmed baking sheet. Season with salt and pepper. Pour the Guinness into the bottom of the pan, then carefully transfer to the oven. Bake the cabbage until tender and deep brown, about 20 minutes.
- Slice the corned beef and place it on a platter with the cabbage. Spoon the balsamic reduction all over the cabbage.

CHEF JOHN'S CORNED BEEF AND CABBAGE
It's almost St. Patrick's Day, and for many that means boiling up a nice authentic Irish dinner of corned beef and cabbage. The original Irish recipe actually used a type of lean bacon, made with a cut of pork similar to Canadian bacon. Corned beef came into the picture as a lower-cost substitution, to replace the more expensive and harder to find cut.

Steps:
- ------------Selecting the corned beef brisket------------.
- Go to the store several days ahead of time or you will have to pick out the best of what has been picked over again and again. The best will disappear first.
- Do not freeze.
- Pick out a nice thick slab checking the sides to make sure it isn't a very gristly one.
- Feel it because some butchers fold it over hiding the gristle if there is a lot of it.
- There will always be some gristle and it runs the length of the slab in the center.
- The thicker the slab the better. If you are lucky, you may see some chunk style at a higher price per pound.
- If there isn't a spice bag in with the brisket, you will need to get some whole peppercorns (white and black) and bay leaves.
- ------------Selecting the Cabbage-------------------.
- The heavier and more solid it is, the better it is.
- Smell it to make sure it isn't too bitter.
- You may have to go to another store if the whole batch has a very strong bitter smell. I have had to visit several stores to find a decent batch.
- Keep in mind that the outer leaves will be discarded even if the store has already removed the natural outer leaves to make them look better and fresher.
- --------------Selecting the Potatoes----------------.
- Watch out for the red dyed ones.
- Pick out a bag of medium to small sized ones.
- The smaller the better.
- If you are lucky enough to find the ones as small as salad tomatoes, they are the best.
- -------------Selecting the Carrots----------.
- Get the smallest bag they have unless you like carrots, because you will only use one per pot of cabbage to take any bitterness out of the cabbage.
- Serving a bowl of carrots is a big no no on Saint Patrick's Day.
- Preparing and cooking the meal-----------------------.
- (It's going to take 3 hours with you there).
- Use a large Dutch oven or stock pot that will hold everything all at once.
- Place the brisket (best side up) in the bottom of the pot.
- There's no need to rinse it because nothing bad will survive what you are about to do to it and you will remove the outer marinate.
- Add the spice packet or a teaspoonful of peppercorns and two bay leaves.
- Cover the brisket generously with water and a bottle of beer (optional - adds flavor and is a tenderizer).
- Bring to a boil.
- Reduce heat, cover and simmer for 2 hours.
- During the 2 hours------------------------.
- Scrub and rinse the new red potatoes.
- Remove any eyes and bad spots.
- Leave as much of the peel as you can.
- Quarter them (halve or whole if tiny).
- Cover with water until ready for them.
- Remove the outer leaves from the cabbage until the leaves are entirely light green, rinse and cut it into quarters through the spine so they stay together. Set aside.
- Peel one carrot and cut it into quarters. Set aside.
- Peel the onion and cut it into eighths. Set aside.
- Rinse the bunch of fresh parsley and chop up just the tops into very tiny pieces.
- I find that kitchen scissors do just fine.
- After the 2 hours----------------------.
- Add the potatoes on top of the brisket.
- Add water to cover everything.
- Bring to a boil.
- Reduce heat, cover and simmer for 10 minutes.
- Add the cabbage on top of the potatoes and add onion and carrot on top of the cabbage.
- Add water to cover everything.
- Bring to a boil.
- Reduce heat, cover and simmer for 20 minutes.
- Check the cabbage to see if it is tender.
- If not, simmer another 5 minutes. You shouldn't undercook it and it's hard to overcook it.
- When done-----------------------.
- In a large serving bowl where you can stir the potatoes, crush the garlic clove and rub the inside of the bowl with it.
- Place the potatoes in the bowl while still piping hot and add (at least) a quarter pound of butter and add a handful (more is better than less) of chopped fresh parsley.
- Gently stir until butter is melted, it coats all the potato pieces and the parsley is evenly distributed.
- Put the rest of the parsley into a tiny serving bowl for those who want to add more to their potatoes.
- As I said, more is better.
- Slice the brisket cross grain.
- Hope there is leftovers for breakfast.
- See my March 18th Breakfast! It's a family tradition. We make sure we make enough to ensure leftovers for breakfast the next morning. Finely chopped fried corned beef and cabbage (the entire meal) and coffee is divine. We throw in any leftover parsley.

- Choose a high-quality corned beef brisket: Look for a brisket that is well-marbled and has a deep red color.
- Soak the corned beef brisket properly: This helps to remove excess salt and ensure that the meat is tender and flavorful.
- Use a variety of vegetables: The traditional vegetables for corned beef and cabbage are potatoes, carrots, and onions, but you can also add other vegetables such as parsnips, turnips, and celery.
- Season the vegetables well: Don't be afraid to add some herbs and spices to the vegetables to give them more flavor.
- Cook the corned beef and cabbage slowly: This allows the flavors to develop and the meat to become tender.

Corned beef and cabbage is a classic dish that is perfect for St. Patrick's Day or any other occasion. It is a hearty and flavorful dish that is sure to please everyone at the table. With a little planning and preparation, you can easily make a delicious corned beef and cabbage dinner at home.
