Recipe View 3 hrs 35 mins Rinse the corned beef brisket under cold water and place it in a large, heavy-bottomed pot. Add enough fresh, cold water to completely cover the brisket by at least 6 inches. (2 minutes)

Recipe View 30 mins Add the peeled onions to the pot with the brisket. Bring the water to a rolling boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to medium-low, maintaining a gentle simmer. Cover the pot tightly and cook for 3 1/2 hours, or until the brisket is very tender. (3 hours, 35 minutes)

Recipe View Remove the onions from the pot and quarter them. Return the quartered onions to the pot. Add the carrots to the pot, distributing them evenly around the brisket. Place the cabbage wedges over the brisket and carrots. Arrange the potatoes on top of the cabbage. Cover the pot again and cook until the potatoes are tender and easily pierced with a fork, about 30 minutes more. Ensure the potatoes are partially submerged in the liquid; if not, maintain a tight lid to steam them sufficiently. (30 minutes)

Recipe View Carefully remove the vegetables from the pot using a slotted spoon and transfer them to a separate serving bowl. Cover the bowl to keep the vegetables warm. Keep the corned beef in the pot with the cooking liquid until ready to slice and serve to prevent it from drying out.

For an even more flavorful broth, consider adding a bay leaf, a teaspoon of black peppercorns, and a clove of garlic to the pot along with the onions.
If you prefer a less salty corned beef, you can change the water halfway through the initial boiling process.
Serve with a dollop of horseradish sauce or a drizzle of mustard for an extra zing.

    The corned beef was incredibly tender and flavorful. The tips about soaking the brisket were helpful.

    My cabbage was a bit overcooked, so I'll add it later next time.
