Description

Indulge in the comforting flavors of this baked corned beef and cabbage, a classic Irish‑inspired dish that brings together tender brined beef, sweet onions, buttery potatoes, and crisp cabbage. Perfect for a hearty family dinner, this recipe delivers rich taste and aroma that fills your kitchen with festive warmth.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3–4 lb corned beef brisket flat portion
  • ¼ cup canola oil
  • 2 large yellow onions, peeled and quartered
  • 3 cloves garlic, peeled and minced
  • 1 lb petite potatoes, rinsed and scrubbed
  • 1 medium cabbage, cut into 8 wedges (core intact)
  • 6‑8 cups water
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 325 °F (165 °C).
  2. Pat the corned beef brisket dry and season with pepper.
  3. Heat canola oil in a large baking dish over medium heat and brown the beef on all sides, about 3 minutes per side.
  4. Add the quartered onions and minced garlic; sauté until fragrant, about 2 minutes.
  5. Place the petite potatoes around the beef, then nestle the cabbage wedges on top.
  6. Pour water into the dish until it reaches about 1‑inch depth.
  7. Cover tightly with foil and bake for 3‑3½ hours, or until the meat is tender.
  8. Remove the foil, increase the oven temperature to 400 °F (200 °C), and bake an additional 15‑20 minutes to develop a golden crust.
  9. Let rest 10 minutes before slicing, then serve with the vegetables.

Notes

Tip: For extra flavor, add a few sprigs of thyme or a bay leaf to the cooking liquid. Substitute sweet potatoes for a sweeter twist. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days; reheat gently on the stove or microwave. This dish also freezes well for up to 2 months.
