Max's -Saint. Patty is Crying for Joy - Corned Beef Dinner is a classic Irish-American dish that is beloved by many. It features a large cut of corned beef, which is a salt-cured meat, simmered to perfection with potatoes, cabbage, and pickling spices. This recipe incorporates apple juice, which adds another layer of delicious flavor to the dish. Once the meat and vegetables are cooked to perfection, they are sliced and served with a tangy-sweet mustard-brown sugar glaze that is a perfect complement to the meat's flavor. It's a perfect meal to share with family and friends, especially on Saint Patrick's Day.

Instructions

1.	Preheat oven to 350°F.
2.	Rinse the corned beef brisket and place it in a large pot. Pour in apple juice to cover the meat.
3.	Add in the pickling spices (and the weak spice pack that came with brisket), and stir everything together.
4.	Bring the liquid to a boil then reduce heat and allow it to simmer for around 2 hours, until meat is tender.
5.	Add red potatoes and cabbage to the pot and bring to a boil. Reduce heat again and allow it to simmer for another 15-20 minutes or until vegetables are tender.
6.	Remove the corned beef and vegetables from pot and slice beef against the grain.
7.	In a small bowl, mix together the yellow mustard and brown sugar until well combined.
8.	Place the sliced corned beef on a large, rimmed baking sheet and brush the mustard-brown sugar glaze generously on top of the meat.
9.	Broil the corned beef for 3-4 minutes until the top is crispy and starts to caramelize. Serve the beef slices together with the vegetables and enjoy your delicious Saint Patty's dinner!
