I brine my shoes.
Flats or points?

Bob, you may want to consider doing a soak for 24 hours in plain water before the cook. How do you plan on cooking it?

From the recipe:
After 10 days, remove from the brine and rinse well under cool water. Place the brisket into a pot just large enough to hold the meat, add the onion, carrot and celery and cover with water by 1-inch. Set over high heat and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low, cover and gently simmer for 2 1/2 to 3 hours or until the meat is fork tender. Remove from the pot and thinly slice across the grain.
Jim, why do you think a 24 hour soak as opposed to a rinse under cool water would be beneficial?
No need to rush a response, I have 9 more days of brining.
What is the purpose of brining? I do it on Turkeys, but I always have it in the back of my head that if I rinse it too throughly after the brine, that I am undoing what I just did. And the flip side is that if I don't do it throughly enough, the meat/gravy tastes too much of salty brine.

'Cause that's what Nona did?
I was thinking we should talk about Mustard a little. What are you thinking Bob? I vote for Colman's prepared mustard.
Since he's making his own corned beef, I think it's only fitting he make some homemade mustard to go with it.
Pickles, ya got to have a pickle with a Ruben.
It sure takes you a long time to make dinner!
