I cooked the $1.88 corned beef today and it turned out really well. I made
it with red potatoes, carrots, and cabbage. I made enough to last through
the weekend since we will be in and out. I like the corned beef and cabbage,
dh likes all the rest with his. I was a little worried about the corned beef
at that price, but it is really flavorful, not terribly fat at all, and
tender.
