Corned Beef! I really love corned beef and we have it at least once every year for St. Patrick's Day, cooked with cabbage, potatoes, onions and carrots my family calls a New England Boiled Dinner.
I have never really figured out why we don't have it more often, because we all love it, but one thing leads to another, and the next thing I know another year has gone by ... isn't it funny how that happens?
Anyway, when we have corned beef that one time every year, I almost always make two. That way I have an extra one to slice for Reuben's or this awesome Corned Beef Hash.
This is a great weekend breakfast treat, and a good one to enjoy for Sunday brunch. Served with a fried egg over top, or scrambled eggs on the side with biscuits, jam and jelly, it's hearty and delicious.
RECIPE
