2 large shallots, peeled and halved
2 tablespoons pickling spice

best corned beef I ever cooked
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

Cooked this last night and could not believe the results. Did it with Coor's Extra Gold Beer and McCormacks whiskey. Added... a couple of cloves and a bay leaf, because they go with the other seasonings. Cooked 5 1/2 hrs and it came out beautifully. Let it sit 1 hr and carved it very thin. My husband couldn't stop eating, but we have some left for sandwiches today. Never again will I go back to the old way of boiling. The best on Earth. Thanks AaronRead more

Loved it and Easy!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

My first attempt at corned beef. I had a recipe for a multiday brine soak but didn't look forward to that and the boiling... method didn't seem flavorful. This was sooo easy and very tasty. I work at home and I put it on at noon and it was ready for dinner. I took one of the suggestions and used Guinness ale and the Jamison whiskey and cooked potatoes and carrots and cabbage separately. My family raved over it! It will become one of my signature dishes.Read more

I'll never boil corned beef again!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I've made this for my big St. Patty's Day dinner party for the past two years; I always double the recipe, and much to my... dismay, there's never any leftovers. I like to add parsnips and celery in with the veggies. I always use Guiness and Jameson; a match made in heaven =D. Steer clear of using a hoppy beer, or it will turn out very bitter. The meat doesn't exactly fall apart when it's done, but it's still tasty. I'll have to try it in the slow-cooker sometime. Also, I cut my veggies a little smaller than the recipe suggests so they cook through in time. Bottom line...delicious!Read more

Excellent choice for Corned Beef
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

We used this recipe for a casual dinner and it turned out wonderful. 3/20/09 Follow the recipe closely, make sure you use... a dark beer. We added cabbage and other vegetabes to the mix. We scored the meat and it was super juicey inside. I would recommend this recipe to anyone. Boiling is right out from now on.Read more
