Ingredients

• 3 pounds corned beef brisket
• 12 cups cold water
• 2 yellow onions, quartered
• 4 carrots, peeled and cut into large chunks
• 4 garlic cloves, crushed
• 6 potatoes, peeled and halved (Yukon Gold or red potatoes)
• 1 small green cabbage, cut into wedges
• 2 bay leaves
• 1 tablespoon whole black peppercorns
• 0.25 cup dijon mustard (optional, for serving)
• 0.25 cup coarse grain mustard (optional, for serving)

Directions

Step 1

Place the corned beef brisket into a large pot or Dutch oven. Add the 12 cups of cold water, ensuring the beef is submerged.

Step 2

Add the quartered onions, crushed garlic cloves, bay leaves, and whole black peppercorns to the pot.

Step 3

Bring the water to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to low and cover the pot. Let the beef simmer gently for 2.5 to 3 hours, or until it is fork-tender.

Step 4

About 45 minutes before the cooking time is complete, add the peeled and halved potatoes and the peeled, chunked carrots to the pot.

Step 5

20 minutes before the end of cooking, add the cabbage wedges to the pot. Adjust the heat as needed to maintain a gentle simmer.

Step 6

Once the cooking time is complete and all vegetables are tender, carefully remove the corned beef from the pot and place it on a cutting board. Let it rest for 10 minutes.

Step 7

Slice the corned beef against the grain into thin slices. Arrange the slices on a serving platter alongside the cooked vegetables.

Step 8

Serve hot with dijon mustard or coarse grain mustard on the side, if desired.
