3-4 lb corned beef, pickling spice
Cover completely with water and bring just to a boil over medium-high heat.
Once it reaches a boil, reduce heat slightly (you want it to still bubble) and allow it to cook for 2-3 hours, adding more water if necessary to keep beef covered.
After the beef is fully cooked and tender (at least two hours), peel and quarter the onion and cabbage. Place both in the pot with beef along with potatoes and carrots.

Continue cooking for another 30 minutes or until potatoes are fork-tender.
To serve, slice corned beef very thin and place it on a platter alongside veggies.
