Yield 15

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 pound kosher salt
2 gallons water, divided
8 pounds beef brisket
6 bay leaves
8 black peppercorns
1 onion, chopped
1 medium head cabbage, quartered
1 pound carrots, sliced
1 turnip, chopped
1 teaspoon chopped fresh cilantro
8 potatoes - peeled and cubed

Steps:

  • In a large stainless steel or cast iron pot, combine the salt, water and brisket. Cover and let sit for 7 days in the refrigerator. (Note: brisket must be completely submerged, so double the salt and water if necessary.)
  • After 7 days, drain the brine and add 1 gallon fresh water, bay leaves and peppercorns. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low/medium low, and simmer for 3 to 3 1/2 hours.
  • During the last 45 minutes of cooking, add the onion, cabbage, carrots, turnip, cilantro, and potatoes. Continue simmering until all vegetables are tender.
