Connie's Corn Beef
No more boiling the corn beef ---- now do it "my way" and you will think you have created the "best"!
 

Unwrap corn beef and place in roasting pan. Spread enough mustard over the top to cover lightly. Preheat oven to 500 degrees. Do not cover corn beef. Place in hot oven for 20 minutes. Remove from hot oven, turn oven down to 300 degrees. Put the spices from the corn beef on top on roast. Do not add water or any liquid!!! Cover the corn beef completely with heavy aluminum foil This means the entire pan - not just the beef. Place in oven and cook for approx. 3 hours or until fork tender...
 
This corn beef must be cut on the diagonal to be extremely tender. If you cut it with the grain, it will be terribly tough..Also, you can cook this a day in advance, refrigerate the whole roast. At seving time, slice thin, pour about half can of beer over the slices and heat in oven on low until warm.
