The mother-in-law is in town; but, I'm going to do an Irish Beef & Guinness Stew for St. Patrick's Day tomorrow.

Speaking of which, our Pastor gave background information on the life of Patrick. Makes me a bit sad to think people use it as an excuse to go out and get drunk out of their minds considering what the man went through.

Corned beef, potatoes, and carrots for St. Patrick's day - with a technique to make it more palatable for my wife:  we glaze the beef after boiling it with a 1-1 brown sugar and dijon mustard and bake for an additional 15 min.  Washed down with some Harp lager.

Easter drawing near... This year I'll spend it at home alone Cry, but I might decide to cook something nice for myself as well. Not being a big lamb eater, I may go for something different, like a nice baked pasta dish. I really have no taste for cooking just for myself these days, though I used to do it all the time in the past. Hopefully, this is the last year I'll have to spend a holiday on my own.

I know what you mean about cooking for others, it's rewarding (not unlike writing a good review)...

St. Patty's Day just passed and it made me want to make a corned beef & cabbage as well..  never tried it but if I can find some good corned beef (I'm not gonna corn my own beef.. if you'll  pardon the pun) I think the rest is just coarsely chopped onions, cabbage, carrots and potatoes in a big pot with plenty of good beer  ..anyone made it before?

Eh? What's with all this corned beef on St. Patrick's Day? Salt Beef doesn't strike me as a particularly Irish meat and I don't recall ever seeing it on the menu in Ireland, it must be one of those peculiarly American traditions. Wink
 
I wouldn't add the cabbage to the pot until the last 20 minutes of cooking or it will over-cook and go pale and insipid (I'd probably not use beer either with salt beef, just water).
 
I tried corning my own beef once, but couldn't get hold of any salt-petre so the final colour was most unappetising, unless you can get some, don't bother trying.
What?

I have little doubt

I thought about just water, but I'm fond of cooking with beer so it seemed like a good excuse..  of course I would only eat the beef and veggies, not the liquid (and a nice warm loaf of Johnnycake would be a perfect side!)

won't even touch this one

It is, in fact, precisely that - a tradition among Irish-Americans.  The corned beef idea was taken from their Jewish neighbors, most likely in New York.

^ I thought it might be, the only meats we in the UK preserve in salt is pork - I would imagine that the traditional Irish fare would have been boiled bacon and cabbage, and early US settlers just adapted the recipe to a more readily available salted meat.
 
I do love real corned beef but it's not easy to find in the UK - the stuff we get here comes in trapeziod tins and is only good for sandwiches and hash.

^ I think there is a step missing from my recipe where you sear the meat on a skillet to give it colour and to seal it before adding it to the veg and putting it in the oven.

as cured meats go, my favorite is pastrami but try finding *really* good, fatty, moist, properly cut pastrami anywhere but NYC, Chicago, Philly and a few other meat-loving towns..  shame
