Bought a joint of beef yesterday thinking it was just a normal silverside joint or something until Headworx asked where I got the corned beef from
Associating it with the canned stuff we have back in the UK I felt like I'd been ripped off
Anyway here it is...

Googled how to cook it whilst rudely and impatiently awaiting HW's reply which luckily was near the same.
It was all slimey when I first took it out of the packet and washed it under the tap
Anyway, just stick it in a pot with water covering it and add a quarter of a cup of malt vinegar, 2 big tablespoons of brown sugar, an onion sliced in two, some garlic clothes and 3 bay leaves.
Then go do some exercise or go the pub for a couple of hours, come back... and to be honest it didn't look too good (a dull greyish colour)
But cut into it...
Tender as hell
Now to get some bread and pickles
Its a little salty but perfect with it and really tender. Pisses all over that stuff in a can.
How do you Aussies or Yanks eat this stuff?
I'm guessing i'll be needing some rye and gherkins?
