Tinydancer · Guru

Ok, I want Chinese for dinner!

Fort Worth Mom · Mod/Penguin lover/Princess!

DD's Drama Club play is tonight and tomorrow, so no celebrating St Patty's Day. Corned beef and cabbage sucks.

Tinydancer · Guru

I'm about as Irish as they come and I find corned beef and cabbage disgusting as well IKWTDS. My Grandma from Ireland said the Irish don't eat corned beef and cabbage unless there's nothing better to have. She always made a St. Patty's day brunch. Now that was delicious, except for the wiggly bacon which she preferred.

TrudyML · Guru

I have one friends Mom who knows how to cook it and the beef is yummy. Then GG made one. Wow! Yummy. My mother would just boil the arse off it. Gag.

Tinydancer · Guru

Maybe I've never had a well cooked corned beef and I have never liked cabbage.

TrudyML · Guru

I still hate cabbage. You probably never had it done right. Now a Jewish corned beef sandwich? Yum! LOL

I bake mine. I don't like it as much boiled.

And I saute the cabbage in butter.

My peeps like it. smile

TrudyML · Guru

Yes, my fiends Mom bakes it too, I think.

My mother boils everything. She is Irish/Scottish. Worst cook ever. I hated veggies growing. I was so surprised how good they tasted when I started cooking for myself.

You'll have so ask her, Trudy.

I put a little water in the bottom of my roasting pan, and put in the rack. (The water doesn't touch the corned beast.)

The beast goes on the rack, fat side up. And I sprinkle the seasoning on top.

I cover it with foil, and bake it at 350* for 2-2 1/2 hours.

It comes out juicy, but not mushy like when you boil it. It gets steamed instead. smile

We like it better this way.

Do we have the same mother? OMG! How about the scallops? She'd throw them in a baking plate, throw bread crumbs on them, melt Crisco and pour it over then baked the arse off them. Heart attack on a plate.

Tinydancer · Guru

My mom didn't boil everything but it all came out of a can...yuck.

TrudyML · Guru

And the QM (Queen mother as I call her) thinks she's a fab cook. Hurl.

When I briefly moved back in with my parents so I could go back to college at night, I took over cooking dinner. My father was so grateful.

Mary Zombie · Guru

I'm cooking it all in the crock pot today since we're working but if I were home I'd spread brown mustard on the corned beef and bak it for 4 hours with the potatoes, cabbage and carrots in the dish the last two hours.
I bake it in new yalears day and sauté the cabbage in butter and bacon drippings. Mmmmm

lilyofcourse · My spirit animal is a pink flamingo.

Have never had a corned beef I liked.

Love cabbage pretty much any way I can get it.

We don't really do anything to recognize today.

But I would not turn down some lamb if it was offered.

Cause Gs still not feeling all that great. He would go if I insisted, but riding the ferry over and back with a stomach bug would probably not be best...
