St. Patty's Day Corned Beef, Cabbage and Red Potatoes

What would St. Patty's Day be like without corned beef? BLEH! Hahahahaha! For those of you who are a fan of corned beef and cabbage here is a simple way to make this yummy dish with red potatoes.

What you'll need is

*Corned beef brisket-they have two cuts available-Flat cut which is less fatty and the point cut which is fatty. About 3 lbs will feed a family of 5.
*Cabbage-1 head
*6-8 Red potatoes
*1 Small Yellow Onion quartered
*5-6 Peppercorns
**Baby Carrots are good in here too!

Fill a pot with water to cover meat (add spice packet-if one is included)
Add quartered onion and peppercorns
Bring to a boil then simmer for 30 minutes a pound

Heat oven to 350 degrees. Quarter cabbage and red potatoes. Once oven is preheated transfer brisket to a oven-safe dish (save stock) and bake for 30-45 minutes.

Place quartered red potatoes and baby carrots in stock and cook until fork tender. Place cabbage in pot and simmer for 5-10 minutes.

Slice brisket and serve with veggies. We filipinos enjoy this over rice. Try it you might like it! Enjoy!
