Description

An easy recipe for preparing corned beef and cabbage.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 corned beef brisket (about 3 pounds)
  • 1 large head of cabbage, cored and quartered
  • 1 pound carrots, peeled and chopped
  • 1 pound potatoes, peeled and quartered
  • 1 large onion, chopped
  • 4 cups water
  • 1 teaspoon black peppercorns

Instructions

  1. Place corned beef in a large pot or Dutch oven. Cover with water and add peppercorns. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 3 hours.
  2. Add carrots, potatoes, and onion to the pot. Cook for 30 minutes.
  3. Add cabbage and cook for another 15 minutes, or until cabbage is tender.
  4. Remove corned beef and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing against the grain.
