06 Step

Serve: Slice the corned beef against the grain and serve hot with the cabbage and vegetable mixture, Ladle some of the cooking liquid over the meat for extra moisture and flavor.
For a richer flavor, consider using beef broth instead of water.
If you don't have Irish stout, you can substitute another dark beer or even beef broth with a tablespoon of Worcestershire sauce.
Don't skip the resting time for the brisket! It allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful meat.
Serve with a dollop of horseradish sauce or Irish mustard for an extra kick.

Feb 18, 2025Next time, I'll add the cabbage a little later, as it was a bit too soft for my liking. Still delicious though!
