....for last night's meal, carefully prepared according to your
recipe! The corned beef turned out superbly, as did the veggies. Though, we did have to tweak things a tiny bit. The cooking liquid (which contained both Mr Cicerone's
Sunuva Buster 2011, and
Matmos Ale) was unbearably, inedibly salty about half way into the cooking time, so I had to start over with an all new batch of cooking liquid complete with beer and spices. And, the beer in the cooking liquid created a lot of bitterness when cooked down, so I added 1/2 cup of buckwheat honey to the cooking liquid, with a delicious end result.
Result- perfectly cooked, unusually spicy corned beef, with the most delicious accompanying vegetables I think I've ever had!
Oh, try this
mustard ale sauce, also Sean's recipe, with your next corned beef. It went superbly. I used Bell's Hopslam.
Oh, almost forgot the beers! Of course Sunuva Buster 2011 & Matmos Ale were superb with dinner, as was Mr Cicerone's Rauchbier!!
