Honey Mustard Corned Beef Roast
The following recipe and photography were provided by local blogger Carolyn Hodges of The Dinner Shift.
Preparing corned beef at home is so simple! This recipe calls for just five ingredients and requires only 10 minutes of prep. The brisket bakes at a low temperature for about 2 hours (roughly 1 hour per pound), which results in a tender, juicy roast.
Because corned beef is salt-cured it’s already quite flavorful on its own, but a simple honey mustard glaze provides a complimentary layer of flavor that doesn’t overpower the brisket.
This roast is delicious served traditionally with potatoes and cabbage, but is also easy to slice very thin for sandwiches. Leftovers can be chopped up and transformed into corned beef hash.
Honey Mustard Corned Beef Roast
Cook time: 120min Prep time: 10min Total time: 130min
Servings: 6-8
Ingredients
- ⅓ cup Heinen’s organic stone ground mustard
- ¼ cup Heinen’s honey
- 3 Tbsp. Heinen’s organic brown sugar
- ½ tsp. Heinen’s onion powder
- 2-2 ¼ lb. Heinen’s corned beef brisket
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Place a 12×12-inch piece of foil in the center of a large baking dish.
- In a bowl, combine the mustard, honey, brown sugar and onion powder. Set aside ¼ cup of this the sauce for serving.
- Discard the seasoning packet included with the corned beef. Pat the brisket dry with paper towels and place it in the pan on the foil, fat-side-up. Use a paring knife to cut slits in the top, spaced 1-2 inches apart.
- Spoon the honey mustard mixture over the top of the brisket. Top with another piece of foil and pinch a seam around the bottom foil to seal. Transfer the pan to the oven to bake for 2 hours, or until the beef reaches an internal temperature of 160°F.
- Remove the top foil and broil for 3-4 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and crispy (optional).
- Allow the brisket to rest for at least 10 minutes. Cut into ¼-inch-thick slices against the grain. Serve with the reserved honey mustard.
