Absolutely love this recipe! The flavors were amazing and my family devoured it. Will definitely make again!
I tried making it, but the beef was tough. Did I not simmer long enough? 🤔
Yeah, you probably needed to simmer it longer. Sometimes beef can be a bit chewy if not cooked enough! Give it another hour next time.
I don’t know, my beef was fine. Maybe you used a different cut? 🤷♂️
So good! My grandma used to make this every St. Patty’s day. Brings back memories. ☘️
Looks good and all, but isn’t corned beef kinda salty? I don’t know if I’d be into that… 🤔
I totally understand! Nothing like grandma’s cooking to bring back those memories. I’ll have to make this for St. Patty’s too! ☘️
Eh, it was okay. Just tasted like boiled veggies…not what I expected.
