Here's how to make corned beef and cabbage the right way. My thanks to my great-grandmother Delia O'Dowd and other NYC Irish Catholics who invented it. It is not normally eaten in Ireland, folks!

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 3h2m

Yield 8-12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 (2 -6 lb) corned beef brisket
1 teaspoon peppercorn
2 dried bay leaves
1 -3 head fresh cabbage
1 -12 medium red potatoes
1 (1 lb) bag fresh carrot
fresh parsley (Dried won't do at all)
real butter (margarine won't do at all. Besides, we now know that butter is better for us than any of the margari)
1 fresh garlic clove
1 medium fresh sweet onion
yellow mustard (whatever floats your boat)
1 loaf rye bread (traditional) or 1 loaf irish soda bread (see my N .y. C. Irish Soda Bread recipe)
Harp lager beer (optional)

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.

CHEF JOHN'S CORNED BEEF AND CABBAGE



Chef John's Corned Beef and Cabbage image

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.

Here's what you need: water, kosher salt, brown sugar, pink curing salt, garlic, fresh ginger, cinnamon stick, bay leaves, mustard seed, black peppercorn, whole allspice berries, juniper berries, whole cloves, ice, beef brisket, large yellow onion, celery stalks, large carrots, ginger beer, dark extra-stout beer, small red potato, carrots, medium green cabbage, corned beef brisket

Provided by Matthew Johnson

Categories     Dinner

Time P10DT20h

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 24

2 qt water
2 cups kosher salt
1 cup brown sugar
2 teaspoons pink curing salt
5 cloves garlic, crushed
1 fresh ginger, 2 in (5 cm) sliced
1 cinnamon stick, broken into pieces
3 bay leaves, crumbled
1 tablespoon mustard seed
1 tablespoon black peppercorn
8 whole allspice berries
12 juniper berries
8 whole cloves
2 lb ice
5 lb beef brisket, good-quality, trimmed
1 large yellow onion, chopped
3 celery stalks, chopped
2 large carrots, chopped
ginger beer, 2 bottles
dark extra-stout beer, 2 bottles
1 ½ lb small red potato
9 carrots, halved crosswise
1 medium green cabbage, quartered
5 lb corned beef brisket, thinly sliced

Steps:

  • In a very large pot, combine the water, kosher salt, brown sugar, pink curing salt, garlic, ginger, cinnamon stick, bay leaves, mustard seeds, peppercorns, allspice berries, juniper berries, and cloves. Stir and bring to a boil over high heat.
  • Once the brine is boiling, remove from the heat and add the ice to bring the temperature below 45˚F (7˚C).
  • Place the brisket in a large plastic storage container with a lid. Pour the cooled brine over the meat. Cover and brine the beef in the refrigerator for 5-7 days, flipping once a day.
  • Once the brisket is brined, remove the beef from the liquid and transfer to a pot large enough for it to sit flat on the bottom. Add the onion, celery, carrot, ginger beer, and beer. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and gently simmer for 2½-3 hours, or until the meat is fork-tender. Remove the meat from the pot and let cool. If making corned beef and cabbage, reserve the cooking liquid. Otherwise, discard.
  • Thinly slice the brisket against the grain for sandwiches or corned beef and cabbage, or dice for corned beef hash.
  • Return the corned beef cooking liquid to a boil over medium-high heat. (If starting with new cooking liquid, combine the chicken broth, water, chopped carrots, celery, and onion in a large pot and bring to a boil.)
  • Once the cooking liquid is boiling, add the potatoes and cook for 10 minutes, until half-cooked. Add the halved carrots and cabbage, cover, and cook for 10-15 minutes more, until the vegetables are tender.
  • Transfer the vegetables to a serving platter with the sliced brisket and ladle the cooking liquid over.
  • Enjoy!

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of corned beef. Brisket is the most popular cut, but you can also use flat cut or round cut.
  • Soak the corned beef before cooking. This helps to remove some of the salt and makes the meat more tender.
  • Use a large pot. You need enough room for the corned beef, the vegetables, and the cooking liquid.
  • Add vegetables to the pot. Carrots, potatoes, onions, and cabbage are traditional vegetables to cook with corned beef.
  • Cook the corned beef on low heat. This helps to prevent the meat from becoming tough.
  • Check the meat for doneness. The internal temperature should reach 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Serve the corned beef with your favorite sides. Mustard, horseradish, and rye bread are all popular choices.

Conclusion:

Corned beef and cabbage is a classic dish that is perfect for St. Patrick's Day or any other occasion. With a little planning and preparation, you can easily make this delicious meal at home. So next time you're in the mood for something hearty and comforting, give corned beef and cabbage a try. You won't be disappointed!
