St. Patrick's Day Cook

[Deb]

St. Patricks Day cook…….. I started preparing for this cook a week & ½ ago……. A couple choice briskets into brine with some cure, salt, brown sugar, penzeys corned beef spice, a couple beers and some water

8 days later

today a Guinness, some beef broth, corned beef spice onion & some carrots into a foil pan, corned beef suspended over it on to the MAK for a little smoke

While that was getting happy I mixed up some dough for Brown Butter Irish Soda Bread (ingredients include brown butter, rosemary & black pepper) into the MAK, while that started baking I also mixed up some Chocolate Stout cupcakes (an entire bottle of Guinness)
Into the MAK for some baking (there is also some garlic roasting next to the bread for the potatoes)

To be continued……….

continued
While they were baking the corned beef was hanging out in the warming drawer (now in the beer/broth bath), back into the MAK it goes, this is right before foiling

Some cream cheese frosting made, dessert was ready, so we ate that before dinner

Dinner – Corned beef, Roasted Carrots, Roasted Garlic Mashed Potatoes & Brown Butter Irish Soda Bread

Enjoy

Hmmm... Beer in the corned beef brine. I can see that tasting good. I'm going to have to try it!

The brown butter Irish soda bread looks so hearty and delicious. I love this whole cook.
