- 7. Store in a cool dry environment.
- 8. Keep the faith, and keep cooking.
CORNED VENISON
This is a delicious way to utilize the shoulders of deer or elk. The process takes a little time but is well worth it. The curing gets rid of the gamey flavor of the venison. You may add one tablespoon of pickling spice if desired for a more intense flavor.

Steps:
- Brine the meat: In a saucepan over high heat, heat the water, kosher salt, curing salt, brown sugar, and pickling spice, stirring until the salt is dissolved. Add the ice water. Place the beef in a 2-gallon ziptop bag. Place the bag in a stockpot and pour the brine into it, over the meat. Seal the bag, squeezing as much air out of it as possible so the meat remains completely submerged. Refrigerate the beef in the bag for 10 days.
- Rinse the beef: Remove the beef from the brine; discard the brine. Thoroughly rinse the beef under cold running water, removing all of the spices, and blot it dry on paper towels.
- Season the beef with the rub: Combine all of the rub ingredients in a small bowl. Spread the rub over the beef with your hands, covering all surfaces, and place the beef in a 2-gallon zip-top bag; seal the bag, squeezing out as much of the air as possible. Place the bag on a baking dish and refrigerate for a week, turning the bag over once a day. This is known as dry brining-you will notice each day that more liquid leaches from the beef.
- Cook the beef: On the day you wish to serve the beef, place it in a large pot with all of the accumulated juices in the bag. Add water as needed to cover the meat and bring to a boil over high heat. Lower the heat to medium, cover the pot, and let the beef simmer for 3 hours, until fork tender but not falling apart.
- Present the dish: Spoon the warm parsley sauce into a small bowl. Drain the beef and transfer it to a cutting board. Let it rest for 15 minutes and then slice it 1/2 inch thick, cutting lengthwise, against the grain. Arrange the meat on a serving platter or individual plates; serve with the sauce on the side, along with your chosen side dishes.

Steps:
- Take 2 litres of the water and in a pan combine it with the salt, prague powder #1, sugar, pickling spice, bay leaves and garlic. Heat and stir to dissolve the salt and bring to a simmer. Once all the salt and sugar has dissolved remove from the heat and add 1 litres of cool water to bring the temperature down. Let the brine cool and put in the fridge to chill, I usually leave it, covered, in the fridge overnight.
- Trim the brisket or whatever cut of beef you have chosen. Remove most of the fat from the outside and any sinew. Place the beef in a non- reactive container such as plastic or glass that will hold the meat as well as all 3 litres of brine. Cover the beef with the cold brine and make sure it is fully submerged. Cover and place in the fridge.
- Leave the beef in the fridge for 7 days. Make sure the meat is submerged and give the brine a stir once a day to ensure the brine has an even concentration of both salt and flavourings. During these 7 days the salt will slowly work it way to the center of the meat.
- After 7 days remove the corned beef from the refrigerator and give it a rinse under cool running water, discard the brine. Place in a pot and submerge in water, bring to the boil and simmer. You may wish to add a few vegetables and herbs to flavour the cooking stock such as carrots, celery and onions. Boil for around 3 hours until the meat is nice and tender.

AWESOME CORNED BEEF RECIPE
Store-bought corned beef is OK in a pinch but nothing beats the homemade version featured in our famous recipe! Now before you get started, note that this page is only about making raw corned beef. The next step is cooking it. Options include traditional corned beef and cabbage boiled dinner, corned beef hash, or even a Reuben sandwiches. If you want, you can add a barbecue touch with two extra steps, smoking it and steaming it to turn it into incredible pastrami. Remember, curing meats is fun and the results are better than store bought but curing is very different from any other recipe because you are using a preservative, sodium nitrite. You must read and thoroughly understand my article on the Science Of Curing Meats before attempting to cure meat or before you ask any questions regarding this recipe.

Steps:
- Prep. Find a proper non-reactive container large enough to handle 1 gallon of brine and the meat as described in our article Science Of Curing Meats Safely. Clean it as described.
- Mix the cure ingredients and the distilled water. Stir until they dissolve.
- Trim. If the meat you buy has two layers of meat separated by a layer of fat, you have both flat and point muscles. Separate them and remove the fat. Also remove as much fat as possible from the exterior unless you plan to use some of it for pastrami. In that case, leave a 1/8″ layer on one side. Because corned beef is cooked in simmering water, the fat just gets gummy and unappetizing. But if you plan to make pastrami from it, you will be smoking the meat and in that case the fat gets succulent and lubricates the sandwich. I like to buy a full packer brisket and separate the point from the flat, and cut the flat in half. That gives me 3 manageable hunks of 2 to 4 pounds each. If you leave the point attached to the flat beneath, it will be very thick and take longer to cure, and there's an ugly hunk of fat between them.
- Cure. Add the meat to the curing solution. If you have more than one slab do not let them lie on top of each other. If you do, they will act like one thick slab and curing will take much longer. The meat might float, so put a plastic bowl filled with brine on top of the meat until it submerges. The meat will drink up brine so make sure there is enough to cover it by at least 1″ or else you'll find the meat high and dry after a few days. Refrigerate. Let it swim for as long as the calculator tells you. Move the meat every day or so just to stir up the cure. The liquid will get cloudy from juices that come out of the meat, but it should never smell bad. When you are done, the exterior of the meat will be pale tan or gray and if you cut into it, it should not look too different than normal raw meat, just a little pinker.

Steps:
- To save time you can use store-bought pickling spices or you can make your own based on the ingredients above.
- Add the allspice berries, mustard seeds, coriander seeds, red pepper flakes, red and black peppercorns, cloves, and cardamom pods to a small frying pan over medium-low heat and toast until fragrant. This will take a minute or two, stir and keep an eye on the spices as they can easily burn.
- Remove from heat and place in a small bowl. Use a mortar and pestle to crush them. Add the crushed bay leaves and ground ginger and stir to combine.
- Add a gallon of water to a large pot and add 4 tablespoons of the pickling spices (saving the remaining ones for later), add the cinnamon stick, Kosher salt, and brown sugar. Bring to a boil, then remove from heat and let cool to room temperature. Then refrigerate until well chilled.
- Once chilled, place the beef brisket in a large, flat container or pan, and cover with the brine. Make sure the brine covers the meat. If the meat floats, weigh it down with a plate.
- Refrigerate for 5-7 days and every day flip the brisket over so that all sides get brined equally.
- Remove the brisket from the brine and rinse it with cold water.
- Place the brisket in a large pot and cover with at least one inch of water.
- Add the remaining pickling spices and bring to a boil, reduce to a very low simmer, and cook for 3-4 hours, until the corned beef is fork-tender.
- Once done, place the meat on a cutting board. Cut across the grain to serve.
- Add some veggies into the spiced cooking liquid, like cabbage and carrots, and cook them to serve with the corned beef.

- In a small, dry skillet over medium heat, toast the peppercorns, mustard seeds, and coriander seeds until the spices are lightly toasted. Carefully turn them onto a cutting board and carefully smash them using the flat side of a chef’s knife to crack them, being careful to not let the seeds roll all over your counter and onto your floor.
- In a pot that’s just large enough to hold the brisket, combine the water, salt, sugar, pink salt, garlic, and 2 tablespoons pickling spice. Bring to a simmer, stirring until the salt and sugar dissolve. Remove the pot from the heat, let the brine cool to room temperature, and then refrigerate until the brine is completely chilled. For a quick chill: Bring 1/2 gallon of water to a simmer, add the brine ingredients, and stir until dissolved. Slide the pot off the heat and add 1/2 gallon of ice and water. Make sure the water is cool before adding the brisket.
- To make the corned beef in your slow cooker, see the Slow Cooker Variation below. To make the corned beef on the stovetop, reach once again for a pot just large enough to hold the brisket. Place the brined brisket inside and add enough water to cover the meat. Add 2 tablespoons pickling spice and bring to a boil, then reduce the heat, cover, and gently simmer for about 3 hours, or until the brisket is fork tender. You want to make certain that there’s always enough water to cover the brisket. You may need to occasionally replenish the water if it gets too low.

- In a 6 quart crock-pot add the onion, potatoes, and carrot. Nestle in the corned beef w/ pickling spice - fat side up. Pour the chicken broth over the top. If the broth does not cover the brisket, add enough water to come ~ 1/2 way up the beef.
- Cook on low for 7-9 hours or until tender. When the beef is tender, add the cabbage to the crockpot and cook for an additional hour. Sometimes there is not enough room for the cabbage to fit in the crockpot and it can get crazy frustrating trying to shove it all in. If this is the case, bring a large pot of water to a boil, throw in the cabbage, and cook for ~ 7-9 minutes or until desired doneness. Strain and set aside.
- Remove the brisket, let cool, and slice across the grain. Throw the cooked cabbage in the crockpot with the rest of the ingredients and then strain a big cup full or two of veggies on your plate and add the sliced corned beef.
- Serve by itself or with sharp mustard or sour cream with horseradish. Happy St. Patrick's Day! Beckie
