I don’t think you can avoid the salt!

I suppose you could add spices to a regular brisket cut - but ‘corned’ is ‘corned’...that’s where the sodium comes in...I bet there are brands out there that have reduced sodium.

It’s not a common meal for most people so enjoy the sodium and drink more water :)

Which one do you use? The original corn bread muffin mix, the original corn bread mix or the honey butter corn bread and muffin mix? lol

I just looked online and they seem to be ok ingredient wise. It says they sell it at Costco so I’ll have to see it they have it.

"... drink more water..."

Or a couple more Guinness Beers or a milder Porter or a Killian's Irish Red!

Just the original corn bread mix — I’m not a fan of honey butter. Also, if you’re making it for a group, it’s easy to get two packages and make it in a 9 x 13 pan. (And now you’re making me hungry for corn bread!!!)

Thank you both, by combining your ideas I found something

Think I’ll skip the juniper berries and cinnamon, but it gives me something to work with. Appreciate your comments!

A family friend, was a master chef for Pan Am and at one time in charge of Pan Am’s food service for the whole Pacific region. If you like Roquefort, this dressing will knock your socks off.

Roquefort Dressing with Anchovies

2/3 cup olive oil
1 can anchovies with dill (I used a little quirt of anchovy paste, about a tablespoon)
3 tablespoons wine vinegar
3 tablespoons lemon juice (natural strength)
¼ teaspoon paprika
1 clove garlic-minced
½ teaspoons dry mustard
½ teaspoon dry sugar
½ teaspoon celery salt
Dash of Worcestershire sauce and hot pepper sauce
Approx. 5 ounces Roquefort cheese
1 cup mayonnaise (best foods or Hellman’s) or ½ cup mayo and ½ cup sour cream

Mix all ingredients, except the mayonnaise, well in a blender. Add the mayo slowly by hand and whisk to the desired thickness/amount.

Didn’t you brine a turkey last year?

When I first had Famous Dave’s BBQ, they only had about five or six resturants. Now they are in 35 states. Their food has always been great in the 5 or 6 times that I have been in one. There is not one near me, but when we travel and I see their signs along the highway, it’s lunchtime!

No, I have never brined a Turkey. I did oven roast some Turkey wings and veggies for a Turkey gravy two years ago. Turned out good!

I remember the turkey wing gravy, we duplicated your recipe for our Christmas or New Years meal this past season, and I am thinking of doing that again at Easter. That was a tasty gravy.

By the way our Corned Beef turned out Great this evening. First time I used a pressure cooker. It worked well on the Beef, but the veggies I added with about 6 min. left to cook the beef were very over cooked and mushy. I think a person needs to be very experienced cooking veggies in a pressure cooker to get them to come out right!

The beef was perfect and very tasty. The veggies like the cabbage were quite mushy! I used whole tiny new potatoes and they cook up good in those last six min. but the carrots onions and cabbage were almost liquified they were so soft!

They are very good and we found that our Menard’s carries a couple of their BBQ sauces. In fact, they carry one that the restaurant doesn’t even carry.
