Baked Dijon-Brown Sugar Corned Beef

This Baked Dijon-Brown Sugar Corned Beef combines a tender corned beef brisket coated with tangy Dijon mustard and sweet brown sugar, baked slowly to develop a flavorful glaze. The dish features a rich balance between mustard's sharpness and the caramelized sweetness from brown sugar, creating a moist and flavorful roast with a browned crust after a brief broil.

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Line a baking sheet with foil for easier cleanup.
  2. Brush a thick coating of Dijon mustard over the entire piece of beef. Place the fat side up on a large piece of tin foil.
  3. Next, sprinkle the brown sugar on top evenly.
  4. Wrap the corned beef with foil so that space is left between the top of the corned beef and the tin foil.
  5. Wrap in a second piece of foil. Place into the oven and bake for 3 hours.
  6. Open the foil and broil the corned beef for 2-3 minutes, until the top is bubbly and lightly browned.
  7. Watch carefully so it doesn’t burn.
  8. Let the corned beef rest for at least 10 minutes before slicing across the grain of the meat.
  9. Serve with the reserved extra Dijon mustard on the side if desired. Enjoy!
