This recipe was the best recipe that I have ever made. The flavor of the corned beef is fantastic. My husband has not stopped raving about it. I will never ever make the plain old corned beef and cabbage again!!

My mother was a bit skeptical when I told her the ingredients I was using for this recipe, but after it was all cooked and ready to eat, we couldn't get enough. This is a WONDERFUL recipe that I am looking forward to using again!

I used a 4.2 pound corned beef round and increased the other ingredients slightly. I increased the cooking time to 7 hours and prepared the meal in a dutch oven. It was delicious.

This was by far the easiest and most tasty corned beef I've ever cooked. I used 2 bottles of Guinness as the beer, and left off the dill since my kids and husband don't like it. The house smelled terrific, and it tasted fantastic. I ended up cooking it longer because of busy family schedules and it just made the meat more tender. Enjoy!!!

In my opinion this is the THE best method in cooking a corned beef. I basically did everything the recipe said except used a regular onion and two 20 oz bottle of beer (instead of 12oz each and omitted the carraway seeds. First I seasoned the meat and seared it and deglazed the pan w/beer & irish whisky. Put spices, onion, and garlic in, covered and put in a 250 degree oven for 3 hrs. Added carrots/potatoes and put back in the oven for 2hrs. I think its important to keep flipping the meat every hour for 5 hrs.

all the previous reviews attesting the value of the flavor are right on target. this is a really tasty recipe for fans of corned beef like me.

however:

now that i have done the recipe 4 times i decided that it takes too long. i know that some things can't be rushed and a tender corned beef is one of them.

the last time i did this recipe i put it in a pressure cooker and i got better results in one hour. yep. i am not a big fan of pressure cookers, but this is one application where it made a huge difference in the time required to finish the recipe without detracting from the results i got in the dutch oven and wasting all that gas and heating up the kitchen.

the only change i made was to add more beer to cover the meat. no water.

very tasty. 4 stars.

5 stars for flavor. However, despite following Dan and Steve's recipe directions, the meat and vegetables were really overcooked in my new cast iron dutch oven. I'll clip at least half an hour from the cooking time next corned beef. Great tasting meal.

The meat was soooo tender and did not fall apart when slicing. The vegetables were perfect consistency. Everything had the taste of the pickling spices, beer and whiskey. It all tasted like autumn. The best corned beef recipe I have ever tried.
