Main Ingredients

  • 1 (3-pound) corned beef brisket with spice packet
  • 10 small red potatoes
  • 5 carrots, peeled and cut into 3-inch pieces
  • 1 large head cabbage, cut into small wedges

Instructions: 

  • Place corned beef in a large pot or Dutch oven and cover with water. Add the spice packet that came with the corned beef. Cover pot and bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Simmer approximately 50 minutes per pound or until tender.
  • Add whole potatoes and carrots, and cook until the vegetables are almost tender. Add cabbage and cook for 15 more minutes. Remove meat and let rest for 15 minutes.
  • Place vegetables in a bowl and cover. Add as much broth (cooking liquid reserved in the pot) as you want. Slice meat across the grain.

Notes:

For extra flavor, you can add a couple of bay leaves and a few peppercorns to the pot while cooking the corned beef.
