Ingredients

  • 4 Tbsp. Pickling Spice Seasoning, divided
  • 4 Tbsp. Applewood Smoked Sea Salt , divided
  • 1 Tbsp. Onion Obsession Spice Blend
  • 1 ½ cup kosher salt
  • ½ cup brown sugar
  • 1 pound ice
  • 4-5lb moose or beef brisket
  • 2 gallon zip-top bag
  • 1 head cabbage, cut into thick wedges
  • 4 carrots, cut into segments
  • 4 potatoes, halved

Preparation

Crush 3 Tbsp. of TSTE Pickling Spice Seasoning & add to a large pot with 12 cups of water, 3½ Tbsp. Applewood Smoked Sea Salt, kosher salt & brown sugar. Stir. Heat to a boil.

Once a full boil is reached, remove from heat & add ice. Chill to at least 45°F. Trim excess fat from brisket.

Place a 2 gallon zip-top bag in a large leak-proof container. Put brisket and chilled brine into bag and seal, squeezing out air.

Refrigerate 5-7 days, flipping brisket once a day.

Rinse brisket thoroughly. In large pot, cover brisket with 1-inch of water.

Add remaining crushed Pickling Spice Seasoning & heat to simmer.

Simmer 3-4 hrs until meat is fork-tender. Remove meat and keep warm.

Add Onion Obsession Spice Blend & remaining Applewood Smoked Sea Salt (½ Tbsp.) to cooking liquid along with vegetables until potatoes are done, about 20 mins.

Slice corned brisket across the grain and serve!
