    Brisket tip: cook it low and slow the day before. Then pull it out of the sauce and put both (separately) in the fridge overnight. Next day, defat sauce easily by scraping congealed fat off the top, slice brisket while cold makes it way easier to cut thin slices against the grain. Then put slices and sauce back into a baking dish and reheat in oven together. Sauce will keep brisket slices from drying out.

      just think of it as pivoting/adapting to reality (whether it's substituting ingredients, changing cooking methods, or just cutting a dish from the menu if it doesn't work out)...I never look at a meal, let alone a dish, as needing to be the best thing I've ever eaten because that's too high of a bar to hit daily. But, I do look at trying different techniques, ingredient combos, etc. so that I'm constantly learning and expanding my palet...

    Some Trivia for you…. Stone walls in Ireland are as old as farming, the oldest known to be those from Ireland's prehistoric farmers at the Ceide Fields in North Mayo which are approximately 6,000 years old. The land in Ireland, especially in the west, is exceptionally rocky. As such it was a practical solution for farmers of yesteryear to achieve two important tasks at once: clear their land of excess stones so that more grass could grow while simultaneously creating separated fields

    • @sandraadams4697
      @sandraadams4697 3 місяці тому

      Stone walls can be found throughout The British Isles, especially Devon and Cornwall, it's the way farmers showed where the land was divided. It's an old art that goes back thousands of years, that is still taught to this day as a craft, by those wishing to learn it. Nearly 40 years ago, when we first met, what is now now my husband was learning how to make dry stone walls..
      Another bit of trivia, Colcannon, would have been served with stewed brisket. It is made from mashed potatoes, butter, bacon, cabbage or kale.

    Hi Beckie, I put more butter milk in my soda bread. I also put Curran or sultana instead of sugar. Flatten your bread more before putting it in the oven and cut a larger cross so that your sides don't break. You did great for your first time. To make brown sofa bread - use half white and half whole grain everything else is just like what you did today. I am glad you like our Irish food 😉🕊️💚☘️🇮🇪

    I would have put the brisket in the instant pot to finish it up. It wouldn't be low and slo, but more tender. I have had experiences like that. Recently made oven slow roasted pork ribs in the oven and they were over done, and I have been cooking, as a wife, for 60 years. You took that in stride as always. You are such a nice young woman. I enjoy watching your vlog especially the cooking. Like seeing your mom and dad too. They are probably my kids age.

    I hope you saved the rest of the bacon grease for those leftover potato slices. With some onions added it makes for some nice home fried potatoes, or Bratkartoffeln as we call them in Germany.
    I think Americas Test Kitchen and/or Alton Brown explained the reasoning behind the slow cooking method. That fast or under pressure do not work as well for tough cuts of meat. It would have been years ago when I saw it.
    The whole time I watched this video I kept wondering, why is that brisket not in the oven already.
    Glad it still turned so well. Everything looked so nice.

We followed Alton Brown’s recipe and let it brine for just 6 days. We cut half of it after it was brined and put it in the freezer so we can turn it into pastrami later.
    It was so good! The best corned beef I’ve ever had!

    Becky I love you and your channel. Made your pumpkin pasta and my husband was like “is this from your girl Becky!” Of course it was. Brisket tip for you - I make traditional Jewish brisket for years - it must cook a long time; you can brown it stovetop, then bake it with the juice/marinade or sauce, covered tightly with foil for at least 3-4 hours - it will essentially steam. Best to make a brisket the day before, slice, then refrigerate in the juice overnight. Skim off the fat after it is chilled and then reheat covered at 350. Cook fat side up only. Keep doing what you do. It’s a joy to watch you.

    I always Pressure cook my Briskets until it is fall apart, then I finish it in the oven...It works well for me and takes a whole lot less time..... Looking forward to trying the potato pie..

    If you preheat a sheet pan and put you pie on the sheet pan it will make the bottom of your pie crust crispy. Do this with fruit pies to so they won't be soggy. Love your site.

    Happy paddy’s day! My mum just gave me her brown bread recipie. She adds blackstrap molasses & lots of seeds & nuts. As well as wheat bran.
    I wouldn’t serve the bread hot. My granny always said it would give you a stomach ache. But we ate it anyway. She said it’s not finished cooking until it cools down.
    Lots of love from Limerick xx

    Becky, I loved your St. Patrick’s Day Vlog. I just found on UA-cam Darina Allen’s Irish soda bread, or the batter can also be used for scones, using the same recipe. She only uses flour, salt, baking soda, and buttermilk. She mixes it with her fingers in the shape of a claw going in circles around the bowl to keep it very light. There is no kneading. She does cut the crust like you did, but a little deeper. However, the magic and the important part is between the cuts. You make little slits one slit on each quarter to let the fairies out. They get rather rambunctious if they’re stuck in the loaf. You might check her out.

      i learned my lesson with this at christmas, tried honey thyme roasted carrots - not good, and a caramel banana swiss roll that just fell apart into a million pieces, i shoulda trusted my gut with that one that the recipe looked weird, it called for more banana than flour

    • @Birdsong-Annalee
      @Birdsong-Annalee 5 місяців тому

      The caramel banana dessert may have made a good ice cream topper or individual trifles... layered with whipped cream in glasses or ramekins. (Speaking from experience in dessert cakes that fell apart 😅)

    As I have experimented I've found myself with too little time for inexpensive cuts of beef. I've learned to cut it in half making more surface area to cook. I have a time or two still had too little time for too much tough. I've diced that up for beef based soup to get something more appealing and less tough.

  • @bluesnakewoman

    Hi, I’d suggest before using flour aerate (mix to fluff) with a whisk before measuring. Keeps flour amounts a little more accurate when you’re not using the scale. Happy cooking delicious meals.👍

    Okay. The potato pie looks so good. I love Brussel sprouts. And the sauce looked like it would bring out their flavor well. Now the cake. I don't care for cake or really any sweets that much, but I have to say, this looks delicious. And with your spin on decorating it, it was beautiful. Thanks Becky.

    Helpful hint that I got from ATK, add a couple of tablespoons of water to your pan when rendering bacon. It helps the fat render more quickly and thoroughly. Everything looks so good! Thanks again for sharing...I would never have found that potato pie and I can't wait to try it! : )

    Do you guys in America call each dish served as a course😮? A course in the UK is like starter, main course, dessert, cheese and biscuits. Becky where I come from our local speciality dish is a butter pie, very similar to the potato pie you made but just potato, onion and butter also with a pastry lid, traditionally eaten on a Friday or Saturday lunch, it's lovely and well worth making

    There are several ways you can cook a brisket, but I've only ever tried the method I saw on Cook's Country. I had a cheap gas grill and still managed to make a yummy brisket! I put wet wood chips in a foil pack, slit it, and put on my gas briquettes. Smoked the brisket for about an hour or so, then transferred it to a preheated oven and cooked it low and slow for several more hours. I will confess that I was quite giddy over the success - I felt like a REAL chef lol!!!

    For tender meat: either pressure cook, or low ( 250 ish ) and SLOW..( hours 3-4 ish )…. Your dinner was AMAZING!!!!!
    P.S. when cooking low and slow, seal pan tightly with plastic wrap ( yes it can go in the oven ) and then lid, and try not to peek when it’s cooking… Suzanne Goin ( chef with several restaurants in L A. ) taught me that trick.
