Corned Beef and Cabbage Tips
What’s the best cut of corned beef to buy?
It depends on your personal preference. There are two cuts of brisket for corned beef: flat cut and point cut. The flat cut is square, has less fat, slices easily and is found in grocery stores more commonly. On the other hand, the point cut is pointed, has more fat and is better for shredding. Additionally, you could purchase an entire brisket, which has the point and flat cut, or a beef round, though it is a much less common cut for corned beef.
What else should I serve with the corned beef?
In addition to the vegetables and sauces, this Dutch oven corned beef goes great with a hearty slice of
Irish soda bread and a pad of butter. For more festive ideas, check out all of our
