Corned beef from scratch update 03/08/26:

Mar 9, 2026 12:22 AM

Despite assurances, my preferred grocery store has NOT gotten a restock on corned beef.  With 9 days left until St. Patrick’s Day, it’s beginning to look as if buying 3 almost a month ago was an UNDERreaction, not an OVERreaction…especially since I now have a couple more CB requests.

I’m going to check in one more grocery store before I go home tonight.

This does, however, set in stone my resolve to learn how to make CB from scratch, starting later this month.

PS: If anyone knows CB brines that they love, please feel free to share!

Well, I’m single, so it would be a preemptive strike.

I’ve seen you post corned beef here before and it looked so good. Hope you find some and post more!

That 2nd grocery DID have some, so I’m covered for the holiday. After that, I’ll resume the process of developing my own scratch recipe.
