Preparation

Step 1

In a small bowl, combine first four ingredients; set aside.

In a Dutch oven, place corned beef and seasoning packet. Add onions, water, and apple juice; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 2 to 2.5 hours or until meat is tender.

Remove brisket from cooking liquid and place in a greased roasting pan. Rub sugar mixture over warm meat. Bake at 350°F for 15 minutes.

Meanwhile, add carrots to cooking liquid. Cover and simmer for 10 minutes. Cut cabbage into eight wedges, leaving a portion of the core on each wedge; add to carrots. Cover and simmer for 15 to 20 minutes or until vegetables are tender.

Thinly slice meat; serve with vegetables.
