Preparation Time Cooking Time

🍖 Ingredients:

  • 5 lbs beef brisket
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1 cup coarse salt
  • 1 1/2 tbsp pickling spices
  • 1 handful bay leaves
  • 12 cups water

👩‍🍳 Instructions:

  1. Prep the Brisket: Place the beef brisket in a large pot. Add brown sugar, pickling spices, coarse salt, saltpeter, bay leaves, and water.

  2. Boil and Infuse: Bring the mixture to a boil for 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld. After boiling, let it stand overnight to cool.

  3. Crock Set-Up: Transfer the brisket and the cooled mixture into a 5-gallon crock. Add sliced garlic and ensure there’s enough liquid to cover the meat. Place a board and stone on top of the beef to keep it submerged.

  4. Cover and Tie: Stretch a cheesecloth across the top of the crock and tie it down securely. Place the lid on top, leaving enough space between the lid and cloth for air circulation.

  5. Patience is a Virtue: Allow the beef to pickle and marinate in the crock for 12 days. This patient process ensures that every bite is infused with the rich flavors.

  6. Cold Water Rinse: At the end of the 12 days, remove the meat from the crock and place it in cold water for 1 hour. This step helps balance the flavors and prepares the beef for the final touches.

  7. Finishing Touch: After the cold water bath, carefully remove the meat, wiping it well. Your pickled corned beef is now ready to be showcased on your dining table.
