This is usually made with Beef Brisket, but feel free to mix it up a bit and use a tri-tip, or some other large cut of beef. Often combined with cabbage, potatoes and carrots for Corned Beef and Cabbage, for which I’ll do a recipe on it’s own.

Ingredients:

• 3-4 pound piece of beef (brisket or tri-tip)
• 1 Onion, quartered
• 4 large garlic cloves, finely chopped
• 2 tsp ground pepper
• 2 tsp salt
• 1 tsp Allspice
• 1 tsp whole cloves
• 1 tsp cardamom
• 1 tsp peppercorn
• 1 tsp coriander
• 1 tsp ground red pepper
• 1 tsp mustard seed (or substitute 1 tsp ground mustard)
• 1 bay leaf
• 1 stick of cinnamon

Directions:

• Put brisket, onions, and garlic cloves in a large pot
• Add water until brisket is covered, plus a little more
• Add all the spices
• Bring water to a boil
• Reduce to low, and simmer for 2-3 hours
• If just making the Corned Beef, you’re done. Serve it up!
• If you’re making Corned Beef and Cabbage, head over there now to finish it up!
