How to Make Corned Beef from Scratch!
Greetings! Since St. Patricks day is just a couple days away and because I love Corned Beef, I decided to share with you how to actually do this yourself.

Keep refrigerated for 7 to 10 days. Every 2 days return to flip the bag over so that you will have even brine distribution.
