Let’s talk about how to make corned beef seasoning, shall we? When you buy a corned beef brisket from the grocery store, it always comes with a corned beef spice packet wrapped inside. That seasoning packet has some great spices in there, but there is never enough. Plus, it only gets the party started.

It is essentially a tiny packet of pickling spices used as a seasoning. It’s time to skip that tiny little spice packet and make our own blend that not only ups the flavor with a few additional high-impact ingredients, but gives us an amount to make a big flavor difference. Boom! Done! Your corned beef spices are ready to use. Time to make the corned beef! Let’s get cooking! Process to a coarse blend, or to your preferred consistency. Use as desired. This recipe makes 3 tablespoons of the lightly ground seasoning blend, much more than the included spice packet. That’s it, my friends. I hope you enjoy my favorite corned beef spice blend. Let me know if you make it. I’d love to hear how it turned out for you, and how you changed it up to make it your own. You can rinse the corned beef, then season as desired. This recipe makes 3 tablespoons, enough to season 1 or 2 average sized briskets of roughly 3-5 pounds. I use the whole recipe for 1 brisket, but you can use half of the recipe, to your preference. Crock Pot Corned Beef. I use this same seasoning blend to cook the corned beef brisket low and slow over a bed of potatoes, carrots, and onions, until it is fork tender. You can also make a delicious gravy out of the pot liquid for serving. Absolutely delicious and perfect every time. Pressure Cooker Corned Beef. Perfect for your Instant Pot! Cut the time it takes to make a corned beef drastically with pressure cooking. This is done in only a fraction of the time, and the beef is just as tender. I think you’ll love it. Got any questions?
