Default Point Cut Corned Beef

These things are on sale for almost nothing now. They are the fatty end of a
beef brisket that has been corned. Don't make great sandwiches, New England
Dinners, or much else, because of the fat.

But...they do make great brisket burnt ends! Find a decent recipe for burnt ends
and try it with the corned beef. At the end I use an apricot BBQ sauce and the
fruitiness counteracts the bite of the corned beef.

Truly spectacular dining, especially with corned beef point ends running $1.69
at Safeway. And, unlike toilet paper, there are not sold out!


I always get the flat cut and they are $3+ this week. I cooked one and
put one in the freezer for another day. That is better than half off
the regular price. The trick is finding one with the right amount of
fat. If it is too lean, it is a dried out slab but you don't want it
to just be a slab of fat either.
