Ingredients

• ¼ cup honey
• 2 cups water
• 1 (3 pound) corned beef brisket
• 1 tablespoon country Dijon mustard

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Step 2

Place brisket and water in a Dutch oven. Cover tightly.

Step 3

Simmer in the preheated oven for 1 hour. Turn brisket over and continue cooking, covered, until meat is tender, 1 1/2 to 2 more hours.

Step 4

Remove from the oven and turn on the broiler.

Step 5

Transfer brisket, fat-side up, to a rack set in a broiler pan. Mix together honey and Dijon mustard; brush 1/2 of the mixture over the top of the brisket.

Step 6

Place the roasting pan under the broiler, making sure the surface of the meat is 3 to 4 inches from the heat. Broil for 3 minutes. Brush with remaining honey-mustard and broil until brisket is glazed to perfection, about 2 minutes more.
