How to Make Home Corned Beef Brisket Cabbage New England Style
- In a small bowl, mix together 1/4 cup kosher salt, 2 tablespoons brown sugar, 1 tablespoon black peppercorns, 1 tablespoon coriander seeds, 1 tablespoon mustard seeds, and 2 bay leaves.
- Using a meat fork or metal skewers, pierce the brisket approximately 30 times on each side.
- Evenly rub the salt mixture onto both sides of the brisket.
- Place the brisket in a 2-gallon resealable freezer bag, pressing out as much air as possible. Seal the bag tightly.
- Place the bag in a large roasting pan. Top with another pan of similar size and weight down with two bricks or heavy cans (approximately 10 lbs total weight).
- Refrigerate for 5-7 days, turning the bag once a day.
- Remove the brisket from the bag, rinse thoroughly under cold water, and pat it dry with paper towels.
- In a large stockpot or Dutch oven, submerge the brisket in enough water to cover it by 1/2 to 1 inch. Bring to a boil over high heat, skimming off any foam or impurities that rise to the surface.
- Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 2-3 hours, or until a skewer inserted into the thickest part of the brisket slides out easily.
- Preheat your oven to 200°F (93°C).
- Transfer the cooked brisket to a large platter. Ladle about 1 cup of the cooking liquid over the brisket to keep it moist.
- Cover the platter with aluminum foil and place it in the preheated oven.
- Add the vegetables from Category 1 (carrots, rutabagas, turnips, and new potatoes) to the stockpot. Bring to a boil.
- Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 10 minutes, or until the vegetables begin to soften.
- Add the vegetables from Category 2 (boiling onions, cabbage, parsnips, and Brussels sprouts) to the stockpot. Bring to a boil.
- Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for another 10-15 minutes, or until all vegetables are tender.
- While the vegetables simmer, remove the brisket from the oven and slice it thinly (1/4-inch thick) across the grain.
- Transfer the cooked vegetables to the platter with the sliced brisket. Moisten with additional cooking broth from the pot as needed.
- Serve immediately and enjoy!
