want to stand and wait for
it? Now you can stop by at
the beginning of your
commissary visit and fill out
a special order slip. Once
your order is placed, the
Deli will get it ready and let

Easy corned beef and cabbage for Saint Patrick’s Day
If you can boil water you can master corned beef and cabbage. This one-pot main
course is one of the easiest to make with only four ingredients – five if you include
the red potatoes boiled on the side. Pick up a 3 to 4 pound package of corned beef
brisket with seasoning, 20 peppercorns, 2 bay leaves, 1 medium head of green
cabbage and a few red potatoes at your commissary. Allow up to three hours to
simmer the corned beef on the stove. Check the recipe. Add boiled carrots for more
color.
