3 lb corned beef brisket with spice packet
2 bay leaves
1 onion quartered
2 Tbsp pickling spice
4 medium red potatoes halved
4 large carrots peeled and chunked
1 head green cabbage cut in wedges

  • 1. In dutch oven or large stockpot add corned beef and cover with water. Add spice packet, bay leaves and onions. Add pickling spice to spice ball infuser and drop in pot with corned and water. Cover and simmer for 2-2 1/2 hours. The brisket should be fork tender.

  • 3. Fish out bay leaves and discard. Remove corned beef and vegetables from pot and cover to keep warm. Remove any fat from the corned beef and slice against the grain.
  • 4. Do not let the brisket boil. This will make it tough. Slow simmer is the key.

Tips:

  • Choose the right corned beef: Look for a piece of corned beef that is well-marbled and has a good layer of fat. This will help the meat stay moist and flavorful during cooking.
  • Soak the corned beef: Before cooking, soak the corned beef in cold water for at least 12 hours, or overnight. This will help to remove some of the salt from the meat.
  • Use a large pot: You will need a large pot to cook the corned beef and cabbage. Make sure the pot is big enough to hold the meat, the cabbage, and all of the other ingredients.
  • Add vegetables: In addition to cabbage, you can also add other vegetables to the pot, such as carrots, potatoes, and onions. This will make the meal more nutritious and flavorful.
  • Cook the corned beef slowly: Corned beef is a tough cut of meat, so it needs to be cooked slowly to become tender. Simmer the meat for at least 3 hours, or until it is fall-apart tender.
  • Serve with traditional sides: Corned beef and cabbage is traditionally served with sides such as boiled potatoes, carrots, and parsnips. You can also serve it with a side of rye bread or soda bread.
