Corned Beef Brisket on a Cutting Board

Corned Beef Brisket

USDA Choice beef brisket flat

Irish Tradition, American Quality

It doesn’t have to be Saint Patrick’s Day – and it definitely doesn’t require a lot of effort to enjoy our delicious, comforting corned beef brisket.

Made with USDA Choice beef, our corned beef brisket is a product of the USA – yet it’s packed with traditional Irish flavor.

Corned beef brisket typically requires up to 10 days of salt-curing. We’ve already taken care of this step and made our corned beef brisket ready to cook – no prep work required.

We recommend cooking your corned beef brisket the traditional way – by boiling it in spiced water and then finishing it off in the oven. But don’t let the word “traditional” fool you – it’s easier than you’d think.

Easy to Prepare Corned Beef Brisket

To cook your corned beef brisket, simply remove the product from the package and place it in a large pot, adding enough water to cover the meat. Next, add as much of the seasoning packet as you want (the more you add, the more robust the flavor will be).

Then, you’ll bring the water to a boil, then back down to a simmer for a minimum of 3 hours. To finish off your corned beef brisket, we recommend placing it in the oven at 350ºF for 15 minutes to get a nice, savory, browned exterior.

After browning in the oven, let the meat rest so the juices evenly distribute throughout the meat, then slice against the grain and serve it to those who deserve it.

Our corned beef brisket is great in a Reuben sandwich, or you can enjoy it with cabbage, potatoes and carrots. No matter how you enjoy it – you simply can’t go wrong with this traditional time-saver.
