Corned Beef and Cabbage for Dummies
3 pound corned beef and spice packet
1 bag or red
potatoes
1 bag
carrots, peeled and chunked
1 head cabbage, cut into wedges
Place corned
beef in large pot or Dutch oven and cover with water. Add the spice packet
that came with the corned beef. Cover pot and bring to a boil, then reduce
to a simmer. Simmer approximately 50 minutes per pound or until tender. Add
whole potatoes and carrots, and cook until the vegetables are almost tender.
Add cabbage and cook for 15 more minutes. Remove meat and let rest 15
minutes. Place vegetables in a bowl and cover. Add as much broth (cooking
liquid reserved in the Dutch oven or large pot) as you want. Slice meat
across the grain.
