It's almost St. Patty's Day ... Are you making Corned Beef?

[Kchurchill5]

Ok, who is a corned beef lover like me?

Now, I like to make my own corned beef. It really isn't difficult ... but, it does take a good 5-7 days. Once you make the brine and season the meat, and wrap it up ... you just have to flip it over every day. It will cure for 5-7 days in the refrigerator. http://www.recipezazz.com/recipe/home-m ... isket-7997


It isn't difficult; but, it is oh so good. NOW, pickling salt ... found in most grocery stores, walmart, target; and other stores is what keeps the meat PINK. Without that salt ... the meat will brown as it brines. If you haven't tried it before ... give it a try; it, is definitely worth it.

I actually make mine in the crock pot ... all in one. Carrots, potatoes, cabbage, onions, broth (with guinness, broth, and brandy); and, the classic horseradish sauce on the side; along with a spicy mustard butter which I serve with everything on the plate as well. My horseradish sauce has mayo, sour cream, horseradish, shallots, and garlic usually.

I was thinking of baked pork chops tonight with mashed potatoes, you really can't go wrong with those two ;)

I will be making the true Irish meal of boiled Bacon.

Ok, shadows ... what is boiled bacon?

[Shadows1]

Bacon
In the United Kingdom is back bacon. Also called Irish bacon or Canadian Bacon. '''Middle bacon''' is much like back bacon but is cheaper.

Interesting. Do you just boil it with cabbage and other veggies?
