CORNED BEEF

Steps:

• 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.

BAKED CORNED BEEF BRISKET

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 275°.
• NOTE: 3/14 This will be salty. If you would like to reduce the saltiness of your corned beef before baking, please follow this recipe recommendations recipe#361142.
• NOTE: *If your corned beef does not include a flavor packet add 2 T peppercorns and 1/2 T coriander seeds to the dried seasonings listed above.
• Combine the flavor packet with other dried ingredients. Using a spice grinder or a mortar and pestle, grind to desired texture. I prefer medium or med-fine. Set aside.
• Rinse corned beef brisket well with cold water. Pat dry.
• Get out your 9 x 13 baking dish.
• Tear off a large sheet of HEAVY aluminum foil, enough to wrap, tent and enclose the corned beef.
• Place the corned beef on the foil, in a baking dish, fat side up.
• Sprinkle with seasoning mix and pat into the brisket.
• Bring the foil up & around the corned beef, do not close up the foil.
• Bake, unwrapped, for 2 hours.
• After 2 hours, wrap the brisket tightly and tenting the foil but sealing it for the remainder of the time, an additional 2 hours. Feel free to check and make sure there is moisture in the foil, re-wrap and continue baking. Approximate baking time is 1 1/5 hours per pound. It may take longer depending on desired level of tenderness.
• Bake to an internal temperature of 185°. Check for tenderness. Continue baking until the brisket is fork tender. It may take additional time depending on the thickness of the brisket.
• Allow the meat to rest before slicing. Cut against the grain.
• I prefer to use an electric knife to get nice thin slices.
• Serve with horseradish, a hearty rye bread, Colleen's Colcanon potatoes, and Irish Soda bread (see suggestions in the intro).
• Enjoy!

CORNED BEEF HASH

Steps:

• Put the potatoes in a pan, cover with cold water and bring to the boil. Cook for about 6-7 mins, then drain.
• Heat the oil in a non-stick frying pan and cook the onion for 3-4 mins over a medium heat. Add the potatoes and corned beef, and push down with a spatula to crisp up, cooking for about 5 mins. Turn the mixture over, trying not to break up the meat and potatoes too much, then add the Worcestershire sauce. Cook for another 5 mins, pushing down to crisp the base again. Season a little, then serve with baked beans and a sprinkling of parsley, if you like.
