Ingredients
- 3-4 pounds of corned beef brisket
- 1 large head of cabbage, cut into wedges
- 6 medium potatoes, peeled and quartered
- 4 large carrots, peeled and cut into large chunks
- 1 large onion, cut into large chunks
- 6 cloves of garlic, minced
- 4 cups of water, or enough to cover the meat
- 1 bay leaf
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Prepare the corned beef: Rinse the corned beef under cold water and place it in a large pot or Dutch oven. Add the water, garlic, bay leaf, salt, and pepper.
- Cook the corned beef: Bring the water to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let it simmer for about 2 hours, or until the corned beef is tender.
- Add the vegetables: Add the potatoes, carrots, onion, and cabbage to the pot. Push them down into the liquid and add more water if necessary to cover the vegetables.
- Cook the vegetables: Cover the pot and continue to simmer for another 30-45 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender.
- Serve: Remove the bay leaf. Slice the corned beef against the grain and serve it with the vegetables, drizzled with a little of the cooking liquid.
Tips
- Corned beef can be salty, so you may want to rinse it well before cooking and go easy on adding additional salt.
- Leftover corned beef and cabbage makes great sandwiches the next day!
