Just another night. Smoked corned beef, cabbage and potatoes

[Shuley]

So one of my brother in law's birthdays is on st. Patrick's day so I always wait to cook mine on a different date, but am sure to pick one up while they are cheap! 

I soaked it for 4 water changes, then Blotted and hit with a rub of coriander seed, yellow mustard seed, purple crack, cloves and black pepper.  I was going for pastrami-ish.  Got that on and smoked for a total of about 4 hours. 

I saw someone over on the guru doing a whole cabbage that was cored, seasoned and lots of butter.  I wanted to do that, and I added more butter in the cracks as the cabbage cooked and softened. 

Then I threw on some diced potatoes which were really just my excuse to play with the sumac I bought.  Fricken delicious by they way. 

And my belated st paddy's meal!

Interesting way of cooking the cabbage. I'll have to try that.

Search the forum for the post on a Summer Slaw that started out as grilled cabbage, with an interesting pear vinaigrette that was poured on during the cook. 

Update: I found the link, it was ckreef's post and recipe.
