*Corned Beef*



If youre Irish you LOVE Corned Beef... this is the way that my Family enjoys cooking it! 
Try It and ENJOY!

INGREDIENTS:
1 (COMPLETELY thawed) Corned Beef Brisket (about 2 lbs.)
1 Cup Apricot Jam
4 Tbsp Brown Sugar
Honey (enough to drizzle)

DIRECTIONS:
1.) THAW the Corned Beef COMPLETELY. This is best done if left in the Fridge overnight.
2.) Preheat Oven to 350*
3.) Place the Corned Beef in a large Baking Dish (if it comes with a Spice Packet, sprinkle the spices on top of the Brisket).
4.) Pour in enough Cold Water to Cover the Bottom of the Dish.
5.) In a Medium Size Bowl Combine the Jam & Brown Sugar. Mix WELL. Reserve 1/2 of the mix in a small bowl and set aside. Spread the other half over the top of the Corned Beef.
6.) Cover Dish & Brisket with Aluminum Foil. Bake Corned Beef for 45 Minutes.
7.) Remove from the Oven and Uncover. Spread the Remaining Mixture on top of the Brisket. Drizzle Honey over the entire Brisket.
8.) Cook for another 40 Minutes UNCOVERED.
9.) Remove and let sit for atleast 15 MINUTES
10.) Slice & Serve!
