Caramelized Corned Beef Recipes

Steps:

• For the caramelized onions: Place a large skillet over medium to medium-high heat. Add the butter, onions, 1 cup water and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Cook, stirring frequently, until the onions are soft and most of the water evaporates, about 12 minutes. Add the dry mustard, onion powder, coriander, allspice, cloves, 1/4 cup water and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are browned and fragrant, about 5 minutes. Remove from the skillet, cover with aluminum foil to stay warm and set aside. Reserve the skillet.
• For the stout BBQ sauce: Add the sugar and tomato paste to the same skillet, spreading the mixture into an even layer. Cook until just bubbly, 30 seconds to 1 minute. Add the beer and scrape up the brown bits that cling to the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon. Whisk in the vinegar, coriander, dry mustard and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Bring the sauce to a simmer and cook until reduced by about a third, about 5 minutes. Meanwhile, mix together the cornstarch and 1 tablespoon water in a small bowl until smooth and free of clumps. Whisk the slurry into the sauce and simmer until it coats the back of a spoon, about 2 minutes more. Set aside.
• For the burgers: Rip the corned beef into small 2-inch pieces and place in the bowl of a food processor. Pulse until shredded into small pieces just larger than peas, then transfer to a large bowl. Using your hands, break the ground beef into small pieces over the corned beef. Add the dry mustard, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper and gently combine the mixture with your hands until thoroughly combined. Form the meat into four 1/2-inch-thick patties.
• To prepare the burgers, place a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add the butter and melt. Once the bubbles subside, place the patties into the skillet and gently press down. Cook, undisturbed, until deeply browned on the edges, 2 to 3 minutes. Flip over. Mound 1/3 cup of the caramelized onions on top of each patty. Top each patty with 2 slices of cheese, allowing the cheese to hang over the sides of the onions. Cover the skillet and cook until the cheese fully melts and drapes over the burger, about 2 minutes. Remove the lid and continue to cook until the cheese gets a crispy, lacy edge, about 1 minute more. Place the patties onto the bottom halves of the burger buns. Generously spoon the stout BBQ sauce on top (about 2 tablespoons per burger). Place the top halves of the buns the patties. Serve immediately with french fries drizzled in more stout BBQ sauce.

Steps:

• Melt 1/2 tablespoon butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and sprinkle with the sugar, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and pepper to taste. Cook, stirring occasionally, until soft and golden, about 10 minutes. Add the beer and continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until the onions are tender and the liquid is slightly syrupy, about 8 more minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the corned beef, Worcestershire sauce and mustard.
• Divide half of the cheese between 2 bread slices; top with the corned beef mixture, and the remaining cheese. Close the sandwiches with the remaining 2 bread slices.
• Melt the remaining 1 tablespoon butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the sandwiches and cook, pressing occasionally with a spatula, until the bread is toasted and the cheese melts, about 4 minutes per side, adding more butter to the pan if needed.

Steps:

• In a large sauté pan over medium heat, cook bacon until crisp, about 5 minutes. Remove bacon from the pan with a slotted spoon and drain on a towel-lined plate. Return the pan with bacon grease to medium heat and add onions and carrots. Cook, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are soft and caramelized, about 20 minutes.
• Add butter to pan, heating until melted, then stir in flour. Add the beer, chicken broth, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, sugar and cabbage to the pan and bring to a simmer. Continue to cook until cabbage is tender and gravy has thickened, about 10 minutes. Stir in the corned beef, salt and pepper. Keep warm.
• Mound the french fries in a bowl or on a platter. Top with cheese curds, then spoon corned beef and gravy over. Garnish with crisp bacon and chopped parsley to serve.

Steps:

• Place corned beef in a slow cooker. Pour beef stock over corned beef and add enough water to raise liquid to within 2 inches of top.
• Cook on Low for 5 hours 15 minutes to 7 hours 15 minutes. Add potatoes to slow cooker and cook for 45 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and set rack to center. Grease a roasting pan.
• Remove corned beef from slow cooker and blot dry with a paper towel. Strain potatoes from slow cooker using a slotted spoon, reserving liquid in slow cooker. Place corned beef, fat-side up, and potatoes, cut-side up, in the roasting pan; generously brush with olive oil.
• Cook in the preheated oven until outside of corned beef is caramelized and browned, 45 to 60 minutes.
• When the beef is almost finished in the oven, place cabbage in the slow cooker; cook on Low until tender, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Slice corned beef and serve in roasting pan with potatoes. Strain cabbage and serve on the side.

Steps:

• To prepare onions and sandwich:
• In a large heavy skillet cook onion in oil over moderate heat, stirring, until golden. Stir in sauerkraut and apple and cook, stirring, 5 minutes. Stir in water and salt and pepper to taste and transfer to a bowl. Mixture keeps, covered and chilled, 1 week.
• Preheat broiler.
• Butter one side of bread slices. On a baking sheet set 4 inches from heat broil both side of bread until toasted lightly. Rub buttered side of each toast with garlic. Arrange 4 toasts, garlic side up, on a baking sheet and divide pickle and corned beef among them. Top beef with onion mixture and cheese and broil under broiler about 4 inches from heat until cheese is melted. Top sandwiches with remaining toasts, garlic side down, and halve.
• Serve sandwiches with mustard.
• To prepare the corned beef:
• In a kettle combine beef with cold water to cover by 2 inches and bring water just to a boil, skimming froth. Simmer beef, covered, 3 hours, or until tender. Remove kettle from heat and let beef stand in cooking liquid 20 minutes. Transfer beef to work surface and trim fat. Use beef as part of a boiled dinner and/or for making corned beef on rye and/or corned beef hash. Corned beef keeps, covered and chilled, 4 days.
