What Is Corned Beef? <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Corned beef is salt-cured beef. Before electricity paved the way for refrigeration, meat was preserved in salt. Brisket (the tender meat from the lower breast) is traditionally used to make corned beef in the United States.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Corned Beef and Cabbage Origins <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

So how did corned beef and cabbage become such a dynamic duo? It\u2019s actually an American invention. Historically, cabbage was paired with pork bacon in Ireland. Irish immigrants in 19th-century New York City, who often lived in the same neighborhood as Jewish butchers, noticed flavor similarities between the corned beef of NYC delicatessens and the pork bacon of their homeland. Thus, corned beef and cabbage was born. These days, it\u2019s commonly associated with St. Patrick\u2019s Day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
