Baked Corned Beef with Mustard and Brown Sugar
Description
Baked Corned Beef with Mustard and Brown Sugar uses a brisket coated with a tangy and sweet layer made from Dijon mustard and brown sugar. Roasting the foil-wrapped brisket in a water-lined pan creates a moist heat setting, allowing even cooking and tender results. The corned beef is cooked to an internal temperature between 145°F for sliceable meat or up to 195°F for a more tender, fall-apart texture.
After roasting, the foil is opened and the oven broiled just long enough to brown the mustard crust, giving a caramelized, savory finish that enhances both flavor and appearance. The finished corned beef can be sliced to serve as a main dish or used in sandwiches or other preparations.
Ingredients
- 5 pounds corned beef brisket
- 1/2 cup Dijon mustard use more if needed
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F.
- Thoroughly rinse the corned beef and discard the seasoning packet. Pat the meat dry.
- Place the corned beef fat-side up on a large piece of aluminum foil. Spread the mustard over the corned beef and sprinkle with brown sugar. Wrap the aluminum foil tightly around the meat.
- Pour water into a roasting pan until it reaches a depth of 1/2 inch. Place the wrapped corn beef into the pan and roast in the preheated oven for about 2 1/2 hours, until the internal temperature reaches 145°F. For super tender corned beef, cook for an additional 1 or 2 hours, until the internal temperature reaches 195°F.
- Carefully open the top of the aluminum foil to expose the brisket and turn the oven to broil. Broil just long enough for the mustard crust to brown.
