Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Corned Beef

    Rinse the corned beef brisket under cold water to remove excess salt. Pat it dry with paper towels.

  2. 2

    Chop Vegetables

    Peel and chop the carrots, potatoes, and onion into large chunks. Mince the garlic cloves.

Cooking

    Combine Ingredients

    In a large pot, add the rinsed corned beef brisket, water, beef broth, carrots, potatoes, onion, and minced garlic.

  2. 4

    Add Spices

    Sprinkle the pickling spice, black peppercorns, and bay leaves over the ingredients in the pot.

  3. 5

    Bring to a Boil

    Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to low.

  4. 6

    Simmer

    Cover the pot and let it simmer for about 3 hours, or until the corned beef is tender.

  5. 7

    Check for Doneness

    Use a meat thermometer to check that the internal temperature of the corned beef reaches 145°F (63°C).

  6. 8

    Remove and Rest

    Carefully remove the corned beef from the pot and let it rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing.

    Slice the corned beef against the grain and serve with the cooked vegetables and broth.
