FORK -TENDER CORNED BEEF AND CABBAGE

Fork -Tender Corned Beef and Cabbage image

I purchased Grobbel's corn beef brisket with their seasoning package enclosed. For this recipe, I went to their website. The only things I did differently were: 1) Instead of covering with water, I used reserved cabbage stock from the night before. 2) For health reasons, I removed as much of the fat as I could. I've never prepared such a tender and mouth-watering brisket before! My husband enjoyed 3 servings!
