This time of the year is great because corned beef is on sale. Yum! I made Boar's Head corned beef. I just followed the directions. You put the meat in water with the spices from the packet and let it first boil then simmer for about 3 hours. That's it!! I made enough corned beef for us all to eat as well as left overs....for only $14!! Are you kidding me?!?!? To buy it from a deli, it would be TONS more money....and all you have to do is boil meet with spices. And it is SO much leaner than anything you can get a deli.
I made a bread-less reuben. I cut up the corned beef, put some swiss cheese on the meat, put a pile of saurkraut on it and dipped each yummy bite into thousand island dressing. I found a sugar free, very low fat thousand island dressing and it was delicious. Having the left overs are great to have!
Lesson here - Make your own corned beef....you will not be disappointed and you will save money also!
