I don't give a damn.
 
You only give a damn when other people use beans. But you can put rice and eat with chopsticks. Weren't you the one who dared me to order a wrap in a tex-mex? I dare you to order that stir fried chili and bring your own chopsticks! :lol:
 
Boys!  Behave!!!

OK, back to food~   Corned Beef Pie!
Now this one has a bit of a story.  For almost 30 years, John has been asking for corned beef pie.  His mom used to make it with canned corned beef.  I've been saying I'm gonna make some for ages, but every time we make corned beef, we'd end up eating it all as a CB dinner or CB sandwiches. 
 
When I made corned beef in March, I used an 8 pound brisket, had to cut in half, this is a picture midway through the cooking without the potatoes and cabbage.  We ate one half in March, I put the other half in the freezer, one big lump in a 2 gallon freezer bag.  It took 3 days to defrost!

100% success, wonderful flaky crust, no soggy bottoms, the potatoes cut the salt to JustRight.  John just says he hopes it's not another 30 years before i make this again.  Now I know the secret.  Cook 8 pounds of brisket for 2 people.
