Corned Beef and Cabbage

 

Yesterday, in honor of St. Patrick's Day, we boiled corned beef, potatoes, carrots, and cabbage.  It was super yummy with a side of Irish soda bread from our local market. 

We bought the corned beef - all ready seasoned from Trader Joe's - and boiled it in a large stock pot for about 3 hours and 35 minutes.  Around the 3 hour mark, we added the chopped potatoes and peeled carrots.  After about 20 minutes, we removed the potatoes and carrots and added the wedges of cabbage. The beef and cabbage cooked together for the last 15 minutes.  Before eating, we added butter and salt to the veggies.
