Been a number of years since I had corned beef. It used to be a low-priced cut of meat but now is one of the most expensive.

I actually have about nine pounds of brisket "corning" in the refrigerator. Making it from scratch. Buying that at the meat market left a mark...

I'll probably cook it tomorrow, eat some with cabbage, give away a few pounds to my family and our meat-eating neighbors, and freeze the rest. What I have to pull out of the freezer to make room for it probably will be what i make for dinners over the coming week.

Steve cabbage is spot on for St Patrick's Day.

Take out corned beef and cabbage..... enough for 2 meals. DH had Philly steak sandwich and onion rings... enough for 2 meals. Happy St Pat's Day!

Nine pounds of brisket is almost gone. Four pounds to friends and neighbors, maybe 2-3 more to shrink and fat (the point was really fatty; next time I pick out the piece), a pound for me over several meals, and some to save. But it turned out very nicely.

My mission now is to try a good store-bought already-corned brisket and cook that to see if my effort is rewarded. I've made other dishes over the decades which didn't turn out enough better than what you could buy commercially to justify the effort. Tomorrow is errands day. Tonight is a wild-caught Norwegian salmon filet and whatever frozen vegetable strikes my fancy.

I went to Costco today (day 21 since I last bought food). Stocked up on fresh veggies, organic chicken. And I buckled and bought a roast chicken. I haven't bought one in eons.....

Egg salad by itself, no bread, to minimize the carbs.
