Directions
St. Patty’s Day Corned Beef, This is our traditional St. Patrick’s Day meal. I have served this sweet, spiced version of corned beef ever since I first tried it years ago. Not the healthiest meal, but worth it for just that one special holiday each year. I serve this with soda bread, mashed parsnips, and boiled cabbage. This serves 4-6. If you prefer, you can sub mini red skinned potatoes and baby carrots so you don’t need to do any cutting, just use more of them. Adapted from a Killian’s recipe., I love this recipe and we had it for dinner with my family. I slow cook the meat on the stove for about to 4 and half hour and it was so tender. Growing up in Hawaii that’s a saying when the food is really good. Broke da mouth and that’s I got to say., This wasn’t a terrible recipe. I do agree with some of the others: sweet corned beef is kind of different, but man oh man that glaze on the carrots and potatoes and cabbage was mighty fine. Next time I’d bake the corned beef separate but sure use that glaze on the veg. I’ve always liked squash with butter, sour cream, and brown sugar, so the glaze was great for me. All in all, great recipe.
