Usually, we will just buy corned beef from the local grocery store and slow cook it with potatoes and cabbage, but a couple of times we have made our own corned beef. The name corned beef comes from the large rock salt, also called corns of salt, that are used to brine the beef. It takes about 10 days to brine the beef brisket and give it that distinctive flavor, but otherwise it is pretty simple to do. Not only is it a great dinner, but using the leftover corned beef to make Rueben sandwiches afterwards is almost even better than the original meal.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_41535\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-41535\" style=\"width: 6000px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"41535\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/isobaresoffit.com\/2019\/03\/20\/homemade-corned-beef-and-cabbage\/dsc_9691\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/isobaresoffit.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/dsc_9691.jpg?fit=6000%2C4000&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"6000,4000\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;4.5&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;NIKON D5300&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1551886055&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;35&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;1250&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.016666666666667&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"DSC_9691\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;Brining Liquid &lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/isobaresoffit.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/dsc_9691.jpg?fit=300%2C200&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/isobaresoffit.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/dsc_9691.jpg?fit=640%2C427&amp;ssl=1\" tabindex=\"0\" role=\"button\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-41535\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/isobaresoffit.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/dsc_9691.jpg?resize=640%2C427&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"DSC_9691\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-41535\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Brining Liquid<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><strong>INGREDIENTS<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>3 to 4 lb Beef Brisket<\/li>\n<li>1 cup Kosher Salt<\/li>\n<li>1 cup Brown Sugar<\/li>\n<li>6 tbsp Pickling Spice<\/li>\n<li>1 1\/2 tbsp Black Peppercorns<\/li>\n<li>1 tsp Dried Marjoram<\/li>\n<li>4 Bay Leaves<\/li>\n<li>1 tsp Garlic Powder<\/li>\n<li>8 cups Cold Water for the brine<\/li>\n<li>1\/2 lb Potatoes (fingerling if possible)<\/li>\n<li>1\/2 head of Green Cabbage<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<figure id=\"attachment_41537\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-41537\" style=\"width: 6000px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"41537\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/isobaresoffit.com\/2019\/03\/20\/homemade-corned-beef-and-cabbage\/dsc_9714\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/isobaresoffit.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/dsc_9714.jpg?fit=6000%2C4000&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"6000,4000\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;4&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;NIKON D5300&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1552841464&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;18&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;450&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.016666666666667&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"DSC_9714\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;Slow Cook the Brisket, Potatoes, and Cabbage &lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/isobaresoffit.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/dsc_9714.jpg?fit=300%2C200&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/isobaresoffit.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/dsc_9714.jpg?fit=640%2C427&amp;ssl=1\" tabindex=\"0\" role=\"button\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-41537\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/isobaresoffit.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/dsc_9714.jpg?resize=640%2C427&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"DSC_9714\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-41537\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Slow Cook the Brisket, Potatoes, and Cabbage<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><strong>INSTRUCTIONS<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In a large pot, combine the salt, sugar, 4 1\/2 tablespoons pickling spice, peppercorns, marjoram, 2 bay leaves, and water. Heat on medium-high heat until the salt and sugar completely dissolves. Remove from the heat and let completely cool to room temperature. In a large brining bag or casserole dish, submerge the beef brisket and refrigerate for 8 to 10 days. We flipped the brisket daily in order to ensure that it brined evenly. When ready to cook, remove the brisket from the brine and rinse completely with cold water. Place the corned beef, fat side up, in a large Dutch oven and cover with water. Add the remaining pickling spices, bay leaves, and garlic. Bring to a simmer over medium heat on the stove and reduce the heat to low and continue to simmer for 3 hours. Add the potatoes and simmer for another 30 minutes. Add the cabbage and simmer for another 10 &#8211; 15 minutes or until the cabbage is tender.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_41536\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-41536\" style=\"width: 6000px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"41536\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/isobaresoffit.com\/2019\/03\/20\/homemade-corned-beef-and-cabbage\/dsc_9699\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/isobaresoffit.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/dsc_9699.jpg?fit=6000%2C4000&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"6000,4000\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;4&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;NIKON D5300&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1551953292&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;18&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;500&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.016666666666667&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"DSC_9699\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;Brine for 10 days&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/isobaresoffit.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/dsc_9699.jpg?fit=300%2C200&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/isobaresoffit.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/dsc_9699.jpg?fit=640%2C427&amp;ssl=1\" tabindex=\"0\" role=\"button\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-41536\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/isobaresoffit.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/dsc_9699.jpg?resize=640%2C427&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"DSC_9699\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-41536\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Brine for 10 days<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_41539\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-41539\" style=\"width: 6000px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"41539\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/isobaresoffit.com\/2019\/03\/20\/homemade-corned-beef-and-cabbage\/dsc_9718\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/isobaresoffit.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/dsc_9718.jpg?fit=6000%2C4000&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"6000,4000\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;4.5&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;NIKON D5300&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1552842610&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;32&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;1600&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.016666666666667&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"DSC_9718\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;Finished Meal&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/isobaresoffit.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/dsc_9718.jpg?fit=300%2C200&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/isobaresoffit.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/dsc_9718.jpg?fit=640%2C427&amp;ssl=1\" tabindex=\"0\" role=\"button\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-41539\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/isobaresoffit.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/dsc_9718.jpg?resize=640%2C427&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"DSC_9718\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-41539\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Finished Meal<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Every year on St. Patrick&#8217;s Day, we cook corned beef and cabbage.
