Corned Beef and Cabbage Recipe

Ingredients

• 1 corned beef brisket flat cut, with spice packet (about 3 lb.)* ($19.99 )
• 2 cups beef broth ($0.26)
• ½ head of cabbage ($1.25)
• 1 Tbsp olive oil ($0.22)
• 2 Tbsp butter ($0.24)
• 1 yellow onion, diced ($0.48)
• ¼ cup chicken broth ($0.06)
• ¾ tsp Tony Chachere’s creole seasoning** ($0.10)
• ¼ tsp smoked paprika ($0.03)
• Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

1. Rinse
2. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Remove the corned beef from the package, save the spice packet, and rinse the beef well on all sides in the sink. Dry the beef and remove any excess water with paper towels.
3. Season
4. Place the corned beef in a 9x13-inch baking dish with the fat side facing up. Sprinkle the contents of the spice packet over the top of the beef.
5. Bake
6. Pour the beef broth into the baking dish around the sides of the corned beef. Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the oven for 1 hour.
7. Baste
8. After 1 hour, lower the heat to 325°F. Remove the baking dish from the oven and carefully remove the foil. Baste the corned beef with a large spoon and the beef broth. Place the foil back over the dish and continue baking for another 3 hours at 325°F. (Baste once more halfway through the 3 hours. Total cook time depending on the size of your corned beef will be approximately 4 hours.)***
9. Rest
10. Once the corned beef has finished baking, remove it from the oven and let it rest. You can let it rest with the foil over it so it stays warm.
11. Cut
12. While the beef is resting or during the last 20 minutes of the bake time, start cooking the cabbage. Remove any wilted or damaged outer leaves from your cabbage and cut it into thin strips.
13. Saute
14. Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the olive oil and butter. Once the skillet is hot, add the diced onion. Sauté the onion for 4-5 minutes until soft and translucent.
15. Cook
16. Add the chopped cabbage, chicken broth, creole seasoning, and smoked paprika to the skillet. Stir the cabbage and cook for 15-20 minutes or until the cabbage is tender to your liking. Taste the cabbage and adjust the seasoning to your liking.
17. Serve
18. Place the corned beef on a cutting board and slice against the grain.**** Serve the cooked cabbage on a large platter with the sliced corned beef on top. Enjoy!
