Corned Beef??

[Pigeon]

I like the corned beef round. It's way leaner than either the point or flat cut. It's more expensive, but I think it's worth the extra.

I like to glaze mine after I'm doing boiling it. I mix up a glaze using mustard and brown sugar, coat the meat with it and bake it for half an hour or so. It's not traditional, but it tastes fabulous.

I just cooked one of these last Wednesday and it was so good! ( I couldn't wait for St. Pats!) I don't even know which cut it was, but I put it in a dutch oven with a can of beer and the seasoning packet, and baked it at 300 for about 3 hours. We made Reubens that night, in fact we had Reubens and corned beef sandwiches for the next couple of days. I bought another one on sale that I will cook in a few weeks and use it for sandwiches, then too. $2.99/lb fresh sure beats $7.99/lb from the deli case!

I just buy the Corned beef that they seel at CostCo, throw it in the crock pot with a bit of water (I dont'r eally like the taste of beer), a head of cabbage (slice into 8ths), and some mini potatoes. Leave it in the all day while I'm at work, and enjoy

Ours is in the crock pot right now. We are busy Wed so we are having our Irish dinner tonight. I've got mine set to cook for 4 hours on high with a large white onion, quartered, 8 small red potatoes, quartered, 2 carrots, quartered, the corned beef with the seasonings, 4 cups water, 2 T apple cider vinegar, 2 T sugar and some freshly ground pepper, in about 2 hours I'll add the cabbage and cook it for another hour or so. Yes, it will be a late dinner, the time change threw us off some. LOL We (well the kids) are also making rainbow cupcakes and we will add some green frosting to those. I'm excited, I love this meal and this year both girls are very excited for it too. And the leftovers are YUMMMMY!!!! My goal for next year is to have soda bread too.

29 years and I never knew you could make corned beef in a crock pot! I'll stick to boiling just 'cause I can hardly remember to put it on 3 hrs before much less 8. I'm gonna totally have to try the beer thing. Do you use just the can of beer or do you mix it with water to cover the meat?
