Corned beef for St Patrick's

Corned Beef

Just in time for Saint Patrick’s Day, why not try your hand at making corned beef.
It is simple, tasty and is done with spices, without the red dye chemicals.
Together we can take the mystery out of this process which will take about 5 -7 days, so it will be ready for next Monday.

What you will need:

4-6 pound beef brisket (flank will do)
1 pound light brown sugar
2 pound coarse sea salt
4 cloves garlic, smashed
1 teaspoon black peppercorns
5 cloves
4 bay leaves
A sprig of thyme
