ONE POT OVEN BAKED CORN BEEF

6 hours cooking time

It sounds like a long time but slow cooking makes the brisket tender

  • Preheat oven to 275 degrees
  • Open meat package and toss the seasoning package.. you won't be needing it
  • Rinse the meat under running water to remove excess salt and blood
  • Pat meat dry and place fat side up in a cast iron skillet that has a lid. (or use foil)
  • Cover and bake for 4 hours
  • While the meat is baking slice several Brussels sprouts in half, place them into a bowl and add either fingerling potatoes or cubed red potatoes, a few sprigs of thyme, garlic powder, salt and pepper.. drizzle olive oil over all and toss.
  • At the end of 4 hours remove meat from oven and place veggie mix around the meat, cover and return to oven for an additional 2 hours.
I like serving it in the skillet and adding corn on the cob as a second side.
