Step 4 – Slice and Serve
Remove the corned beef to a cutting board. Let it rest about 5 minutes.
Trim away the fat if desired (some prefer leaving a little for flavor).
Slice the meat against the grain into ¼-inch thick slices.
Use a slotted spoon to transfer the vegetables to a platter.
Serve warm.
Recipe Tips
Leave the Fat: Cook the beef fat side up to keep it moist and flavorful.
Use the Spice Packet: It adds traditional flavor with peppercorns, mustard seeds, coriander, anise, and bay leaves.
Choose Waxy Potatoes: Use small red or baby yellow potatoes. Avoid russet potatoes, as they break down during cooking.
Peel the Carrots: It makes their color more vibrant.
Slice Against the Grain: This keeps slices tender and intact.
Storage and Reheat
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Reheat gently in the microwave at 50% power in 1-minute increments.
You can freeze the beef, carrots, and potatoes for up to 2 months. Avoid freezing the cabbage, as it becomes mushy.
