Sous Vide Corned Beef Recipe

I walk you through how to make the corned beef brine and use the sous vide cooking technique to make the best home made corned beef.

New to sous vide? I explain in simple terms everything I know about sous vide cooking.

Corned Beef Brine Recipe Ingredients:

2 quarts water
1 cup kosher salt
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 cinnamon stick, broken into several pieces
1 teaspoon mustard seeds
1 teaspoon black peppercorns
8 whole cloves
8 whole allspice berries
4 bay leaves, crumbled
1 inch fresh ginger, grated
2 pounds ice
1 medium beef brisket, trimmed

*This recipe is a variation of the Alton Brown corned beef recipe. He adds a few other ingredients that were hard for me to find, so I left them out.

Corned Beef Brine Method

Place the water into a large 6 to 8 quart stockpot along with salt, sugar, cinnamon stick, mustard seeds, peppercorns, cloves, allspice, bay leaves and ginger.
Cook over high heat until the salt and sugar have dissolved.
Remove from the heat and add the ice. Stir until the ice has melted. If necessary, place the brine into the refrigerator until it reaches a temperature of 45 degrees F.
Once it has cooled, place the brisket in a zip top bag or a air tight container and add the brine. Seal and lay flat inside a container, cover and place in the refrigerator for 10 days. (yes, I said 10 days)
Check daily to make sure the beef is completely submerged and shake the bag or container at least once a day.
After 10 days, remove from the brine and rinse well under cool water.

Sous Vide Time and Temperature

Here is where the Sous Vide community will get up in arms. Time and temperature. Sigh.

I see it as a personal thing. Learn what you like and do that.

Do you want a longer cook at a lower temp? Do that.

Want a shorter cook at a higher temp? Do that.

I did a 180F cook for 10 hours. There, I said it.

It worked for me and the corned beef was not mushy, sliced lovely and had amazing flavor. Perfect for my taste.

How to Sous Vide Corned Beef

Here is where using sous vide to cook your corned beef is different from boiling corned beef.

Set your sous vide to 180F.
After rinsing off the brine, place the beef in a vacuum bag. It is optional but I lay on some of the extra spices from the brine. I want to get out EVERY piece of goodness out of those spices.
Vacum and seal the corned beef. Cook at 180F for 10 hours.
Once you have finished the cook, remove the corned beef from the water and plunge into an ice water bath to stop the cooking.
Trim the fat off of the corned beef. (optional but encouraged)
Slice across the grain meaning, across the short width, in this case.

Trimming The Corned Beef

You might not do this BUT I am not a fan of fat. I trimmed the fat off of the corned beef.

A scrape and a trim and it fell right off. Feel free to leave some on if that is what you like.

Looks ready for slicing.
