Love a nice corned beef. Our butcher cures his own. Beautiful.

Same recipe I use to boil, a mate told me to slow cook it just last week. Will pick one up this weekend to try this! Enjoy

I read that as "...mate told me to slow cook it for a week" and thought - that's a bit of overkill. Reminds me of my late father's (a butcher) advice to his customers about putting a stone in with it...

Former lady friend used to cut the corners off the piece of silverside - I asked her why she did that - more even heat penetration or something?

She did it because that was the way her mother used to cook it. Out of interest she asked her aged mother why.

Apparently they were very poor during the 1950s and it was the only way she could get the beef to fit into the only larger sized cooking pot she had.

Our butcher growing up used to make his corned beef out of brisket. Damn I miss that!

Got home and the house smelt fantastic, the smell of the vinegar, herbs and spices form the crock pot filled the house

Could not help myself and pulled it out and cut the end off, then put it back in the pot to cool slowly

Fark me, couldnt even cut it it was that soft. Feel away from my fork

Was nice and peppery with the spices in the back ground. Would go fantastic with a dark port or stout or this bottle of Cab Sav h34r:

the old corned dog eh!
looks nice I like pickled pork probably more !

 

[niftinev]

luv a nice piece of corn dog, boiled spuds, cabbage, white sauce and fresh pepper

Last year I was buying hands of pickled pork for about $9kg

Used to bake it slowly...... :icon_drool2:

 

[Ducatiboy stu]

Actually..... I am kicking myself. That piece would have been PERFECT for making jerky. Very little fat through the meat with just a thin layer on the outside

Anyway...next time

Nice.
Made one recently when my partner's aunt visited the apple island- similar recipe, turned out well. Similar recipe to above. No white sauce - was part of a ploughman's lunch with various mustards and I have very bad memories of my mum's white sauce which was very similar to clag but less nice.

Just grabbed mine from coles but very interested in curing my own.

Got plans for various cured meats this winter so I might add this in to the mix.

[Ducatiboy stu]

\was part of a ploughman's lunch with various mustards

Stop it....Stop it now









I am thinking whole grain mustard and toasted slabs of sourdough......and silverside

 

[manticle]

Pint, cheddar, corned beef, mustard, thick crusty bread....

You know you want to.

Well thats breakfast sorted

 

[manticle]

Mine was sorted from 'pint'.

 

[Moad]

Can you smoke corned beef?

 

[manticle]

You can smoke anything but it may not get you high.

 

[Camo6]

The only time the Keen's mustard powder comes out in my house is for silverside. Great big dollops of it that brings tears to the eyes and makes my nose feel like I just spent a weekend with Keith Richards.
The next morning cold, thin slices of the leftovers on toast with thick butter and dijon. Yummo.

 

[Ducatiboy stu]

Can you smoke corned beef?

I have made **** loads of jerky from corned beef, and smoked it

The answer to your question is not can you smoke it, but when are you going to smoke it

Easy pastrami is skinned sllverside rolled in chilli. pepper & spices and slow smoked. :icon_drool2:

You know you want to.

I absolutely love corned beef too. It would be the main course on my last meal......Tassie muscles in tomato sauce would kick off. Chocolate self saucing pudding to finish.

I cook mine with same recipe, but use brown sugar and some balsamic vinegar sometimes. Corned beef is wonderful out of the pressure cooker. Cook it up, release the pressure and toss in a dozen small potatoes in their jackets.

Traditional white sauce of course (i grate a little nutmeg in my white sauce also).

 

[tugger]

My local has the corned beef all vacuum sealed ready to sous vide.
10 hours at 70c does the trick.

..Tassie muscles in tomato sauce would kick off. Chocolate self saucing pudding to finish.

Muscels steamed in white wine then a good tomato sauce* to mix it thru at the end done in wok

* fresh toms cut chunky and herbs

 

[Mardoo]

chuck a bit of bacon in with the tomato sauce and be sure to steam them in dry riesling...unreal...

 

[manticle]

Bacon? How could bacon...oh right. Yeah bacon.

Answers most questions satisfactorily.

 

[Ducatiboy stu]

chuck a bit of bacon in with the tomato sauce and be sure to steam them in dry riesling...unreal...

I know bacon goes with everything, but sometimes you dont need it

Muscles, steamed in a good white wine

Fresh ripe tomato's diced, some olive oil, bit of tomato paste

Fresh basil, oregano, diced onion/shallots

Throw all that in when the muscles have started to open

You know the rest


The rest is history

 

[manticle]

Mussels
Muscles
Apostrophes

 

[AJS2154]

I realised after my post the spelling of mussels was incorrect. I hoped it would go unnoticed. Alas......no.

Happy Sunday. I am making a kolsch today. Love brew days.
