I found this a few weeks ago at Costco. I have never been a huge corned beef fan but
1. This was from Snake River Farms and
2.Look at the marbelimg in the thing . How could I not try it. 



I didn't want to just boil the thing. I saw were some one suggested smoking them but also to soak them so they aren't salty. 30 hours of soak time and coated it with " muther f'ing rat rub" ( my favorite brisket Rub) and on the egg


At 170 internal temp I took it off the Egg. I poured a whole corona into the pressure cooker and used a sweet onion cut into chunks to keep the roast up out of the beer. 


1 hour in the presssure cooker and it was ready to slice. 


Not traditional corned beef beef and cabbage . More like pastrami and Freedom Fries!! But damn was it good. Once again with tips I have picked up from this forum my family is very happy with their meal.

    Spot on! It looks really good. I have a couple soaking myself. They won't be SRF quality but I won't have any problem throwing a few back. I'm surprised a bald eagle didn't swoop down and try a little taste of those freedom fries!

    I saw one of those in a local grocery store. It was around $55.
    I don't recall if it was Kobe, but is was SRF for sure
    Are they a better deal at Costco?

    It was $7 something a pound . This roast was under $30. If there are any left this weekend I will grab a couple for the freezer

    Man that looks awesome.  At $7 a lb I would be all over that. I paid way more for boars head at the Publix deli.  


    Which came first the chicken or the egg?  I egged the chicken and then I ate his leg.

    I have a point I picked up at Walmart. Soaked it 24 hrs with 3 water changes. I'm going to smoke it today. I was going to steam it in the instantpot but someone suggested sous vide would be better?

    I always wanted a Publix. until I got one in my neighborhood.
    It hurts always paying 25% too much.
    Produce selection is good.
    The meat is not so good, it is low grade choice at best.

    That's a lot better than the local Piggly Wiggly not far from me.
