My favorite time of the year! Packaged Corned Beef goes on sale for a week or two around St. Patty's Day. At my store they dropped from $6/lb+ to $1.88/lb for the point cut and $2.49 for the flat cut. The point has more fat and is juicier. The flat cut is better for slicing.
I snagged 5. I'll make one this weekend, one next weekend, and freeze the rest to eat throughout the year.
Add carrots, potatoes, onions and some spices. You've got enough food for a week of dinners. For like $20!
