You’re going to require:

One item of corned beef brisket (about five lbs)

boiling water (duh.)

One Tablespoon mixed pickling spices (these almost certainly come with your corned beef)

1/2 cup strongly packed light brown sugar (the secret ingredient)

1/2 cup prepared mustard

Preheat oven to 325 degrees.

Wash the brisket and place in a large roasting pan on the oven rack and cover the meat with boiling water. Add pickling spices and cover with aluminum foil.

Bake for two hours, or until tender. Allow to cool in cooking liquid.

About one hour before serving, drain cooked corned beef and return to roasting pan. Bake at 325 degrees for another 30 minutes.

Mix the brown sugar and mustard in a small bowl and spread on the corned beef. Bake for another 30 minutes or until the beef is well glazed.

Now to prepare it extra special, here is a great recipe for a special sauce to dip the corned beef in:

You’ll need:
1 8 oz container of sour cream

2 Tablespoons prepared mustard

2 Tablespoons prepared horseradish

Combine all these ingredients together and refrigerate about an hour to two hours to get the flavor to peak.

Enjoy!

Oh we forgot the cabbage…

Chop up a head of cabbage, boil it till tender. Take a pack of bacon, chop it up in centimeter pieces and saute. When cabbage is tender, drain out the water and mix in the bacon.

And, enjoy!
