Corned beef has become a St. Patrick’s Day staple in America. The salty meat is a delicious treat any time of the year but around St. Patrick’s Day, more corned beef briskets are cooked than any time of the year. If you’re hosting a St. Patrick’s Day party, these corned beef sliders are sure to be a hit! They are easy for guests to grab and go and they are a delicious way to eat corned beef.
Corned Beef Ingredients:
- 3 pounds corned beef brisket with spice packet
- 3 bay leaves
- 1 teaspoon of black peppercorn
- 5 tablespoons of spicy mustard
Directions:
- Place corned beef in a large pot or Dutch oven and cover with water. Add the spice packet that came with the corned beef, bay leaves, and peppercorn. Cover the pot and bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Simmer for approximately 50 minutes per pound or until tender. A 3-pound brisket will take about 3 hours to cook and become tender. You want the meat to fall off and shred easily.
- Remove meat from the water and place in an oven-safe dish, take a cup or 2 of meat broth and place in the pan with the meat (keep the rest of the broth in the pot on low heat). Spread mustard over the top of the meat and place in the oven for 15-20 minutes at 350, until the top is slightly browned. (Tip: I also spoon liquid over the meat once or twice while it’s in the oven to keep it from getting dry)
