It’s March and we all know what that means, St. Patrick’s Day. All the grocery stores are running deals on brisket, cabbage, potatoes, and carrots.

I was able to score corned beef brisket for $3.49/lb, 8lbs of potatoes for $1.49, cabbage for $.79/lb, and carrots for $.99/lb.

$3.03 per person.

Did you corn the beef yourself?

No, I just bought premade. You really can’t beat $3.49/lb.

I’ve done it myself. It is not cheaper than buying it in March when it is usually on sale. I cooked some fresh and canned the rest up for later meals.

I do it myself as well, but not because it’s cheaper. Gonna get me one of those big ass Costco briskets and corn the whole thing for ten days.

Just finished last year’s batch this week.

I also use Costco. I make sure to render all the trimmings into tallow so nothing goes through waste.
