Corn beef

I am going to cook one tonight. I have cooked them in the oven, boiled them in a pot, in a crock pot heck I even smoked one.
I think I will do it the traditional way in a pot with well water, a can of Stout beer and the season packet for about 45 min a pound.
I have a head of cabbage too. I like to cut it up and bake it in the oven with onions sliced thin covered on olive oil with salt. I like it when it gets a little char on it. Then serve it with a Balsamic Vinegar reduction.
Taters are getting boiled with a few carrots.
The best part is the leftover Corn Beef to make sandwiches. I need to go get a jar of sauerkraut and some dark bread. I have Horseradish man that is good eatin right there.
I love Corn Beef, its is in my top 10 meals to eat.
When I was a kid my Mom made it once a week during the winter, usually on Thursday.
Oh yea I am going to my range and shoot some 44 magnum I loaded last night. I loaded 300 rounds 250gr cast KT bullets I cast last winter, Winchester LP Primers and a medium amount of Rel#5. I am taking out my New to me Old Model Super BH with a 4 5/8 and my S&W Mountain revolver. I am going to knock the piss out of my dueling tree and the 75 yd gong
This is going to be a fun day and I am going to eat good tonight.

That sounds delicious, properly done corned beef and cabbage is in my top 10 all time favorites.
The one you smoked, did you do so after boiling?
I was making one for the guys at work last St Paddys days and I called my Bride, who is a fabulous cook for last minute instructions and she laughed and said " cook it like a kidney and boil the pi$$ out of it".
I followed her instructions, and the guys raved over it, even a guyfrom Red Deer Alberta who, believe it or not was a raised on a farm, who had never in his life eaten corned beef and cabbage.
Keep up the mouth watering posts.

Yep I boiled it for about 30min a # then smoked it. It was like Pistrami and corn beefy. I liked it and fortunately my wife only eats Veggies and fish with a little ham or pork thrown in so it was ALL MINE!!
Well all the 44 mags went off and now my range is 10.7 pounds heavier due to being hit with 300x 250gr .430 lead projectiles moving at about 1050 fps. Sling that much lead I may have messed up the earths rotation a little
Next job is to buff out my headlight lens on my Camry they have severe cataracts. I got a kit at NAPA and this will be the 3rd vehicle I have done this too. Its an easy job and well worth the trouble. I think I will pull it into the barn and listen to some Limbaugh while I am working. I am putting off pulling the 360 out of my 74 Power wagon and rebuilding it...............Man I really don't want to get into that :!:
I have prepared them a number of ways but always start out boiling them in my well water (which is all I drink anyway). My wife hates those seeds (flavor packet) in with the cooked meal, so I put them in a homemade cotton cloth bag boiled with the meat to at least get the flavor.
Another thing I like to do is to remove the meat after the allotted time and place it in a roasting pan. Cover the top of it with yellow mustard or any favored kind and bake it in the oven for about a half hour at 325 degrees. This toughens it up just a bit but it slices thin as you like and oh......sooooooo??.gooooooood! :P
That Flour sack deal sounds like a good idea, have to question my Bride about it to see if she's ever tried it.
And that's what she does, is grab several when on sale at St Paddys day time.
I'm also very intrigued by Sam's suggestion at smoking them, sounds like a great variation.

Is blackberry wine OK?
I'm with a few guys that make a couple/few hundred quarts a year of old world Bohemian Sauerkraut! Just Cabbage, a bit of Kosher salt and Caraway seeds! So good!
Goes great with a good Corned Beef!

I bought 15 of them when they were on sale and I had a cupuon that doubles. I got them so cheap I could cook them and feed them to the dogs.
I would love some home made sauerkraut. I have never made it but I have made Kimchi so it cannot be much different. I just don't eat all that much but I should because its really good for you.
It was a small corn beef, 2 pounds and I ate it all.................. Along with a pile of cabbage and taters
I was a hog but it was so good.
My wife came upstairs this morning getting ready for work and asked my why I slept up here? I told her I didn't want to keep her awake all night with my flatulence
she said thanks
