Has anyone ever corned their own beef?

I have a lot if meat to prepare/cook and freeze or eat, I have a large beef brisket ready to go in my fridge.

I was going to corn it and slice it like my Mum used to when we lived in NZ, I only ever saw the cooking bit though, I never knew it was cured for a week!

I don't think I've got a container big enough to hold it, keep it submerged and fit in the fridge and I don't think it's cold enough outside in the shed to be safe.

Anyone done this and can give me tips for the future or does anyone have any recipes for a large brisket? I usually slow cook it but was was underwhelmed last time we did it,

I haven't done it, but my niece has ! tricky to get some of the ingredients - she had to go on the internet for some. She used the recipe in the Larousse that I got her for a wedding present :) ( she is a true cook and foody!) Seems it was great

For a brisket, I would make Sauerbraten or Salt beef. Both require soaking/brining but both are really easy and delicious. MIL loved my sauerbraten and was then offended that it was just brisket as that's a 'cheap' cut Grin

Google for recipes, there's a good Guardian salt beef one
