ingredients
- 1814.36 g corned beef brisket
- 7.39 ml dried parsley
- 4.92 ml ground mustard
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 4.92 ml dried thyme
- 4.92 ml ground black pepper
- 2.46 ml ground cloves
- 2.46 ml ground nutmeg
- 1 large onion, diced
- 118.29 ml butter
- 118.29 ml orange juice
- 2 apples, peeled, cored, and sliced
- cranberry sauce, to top cooked beef
directions
- Preheat oven to 265 degrees F. (If you're using a crock pot, set it on low.).
- If the corned beef came with a packet of seasoning and spices, you can discard it or save it for another meal; you won't need it here.
- Rinse the corned beef brisket, and place in an enameled oven-safe cooking pot, such as a cast iron dutch oven. (The acidity of the orange juice can affect the seasoning in a bare iron pot, which is why an enameled cooking pot should be used.).
- Add spices as listed: parsley, mustard, garlic, thyme, pepper, cloves, nutmeg.
- Spread diced onion over the brisket, add butter on top.
- Pour orange juice into the pot.
- Add sliced apples on top of the onions.
- Cover the pot and place in the preheated oven.
- Cook for 8 hours. The meat will be tender enough to pull apart with a fork.
- Serve beef with cranberry sauce topping. Mashed potatoes make a good accompanying side dish.
