How to Make Corned Beef for St. Patrick's Day — Tips from a Butcher

St. Patrick's Day is one of those holidays where the food matters just as much as the fun. On this episode of Meat & Greet, Myke Stittsworth talks through the art of corned beef — from how it's brined and seasoned to the best way to cook it low and slow until it's fork-tender.

Whether you're doing a traditional corned beef and cabbage dinner or looking for something a little different (corned beef hash, Reubens with the leftovers), Myke shares practical tips you can actually use at home. He also talks about what makes a good cut for corning and why buying from a local butcher gives you better flavor than the pre-packaged stuff.

Episode Highlights

  • What "corning" actually means and how the brining process works
  • Flat cut vs. point cut — which is better for your St. Paddy's dinner
  • Simple cooking method that nails it every time
  • Creative leftover ideas: Reubens, hash, and more
