Corned beef again

Corned beef... how about some corned beef hash? Anybody got any good
recipes?

Also, we smoked a corned beef last weekend as follows:
Whole untrimmed corned beef in cryo...12.5 lb
Rinsed and soaked in fresh water for a couple hours
Trimmed of excess fat and rubbed with spice mixture:
coarse black pepper - lots!
ground coriander seed
a little Cowtown Steak Dust or any white pepper based steak seasoning
a little garlic powder
Smoked in hickory for about 12 hours at 240F.
Rest, chill and reheat or slice and serve, but I prefer it warm.

Fabulous Reubens! I sliced the beef and heated it through in an iron skillet
and then simmered for a few minutes by adding sauerkraut and some juice.
Sammy is assembled with muenster cheese (next to the bread so it melts in
the skillet), thousand island dressing, on light rye, skilled toasted to
golden brown.

I think I'm ready to do this again tonight!

Restaurant Depot had them on sale for $1.89/lb. That's lower than
Packer Cut Brisket these days.

Does RD allow members to buy items for personal use that will not be
resold? I have a friend who is a member, but of course if items are
not for resale, one needs to pay sales tax. Do they do that?

I take all the leftovers from the corned beef dinner -- meat, cabbage,
potatoes, carrots -- cut it into "hash-sized" chunks, and fry it in an
iron skillet with some oil. Press it down and let it sit until you get
some nice brown crust on the bottom, stir it up, lather, rinse, repeat
until it's hot and brown enough for your taste.

You could try making a big crusty "pancake" that you turn over in one
piece and then cut into wedges for serving, but that never worked for me.

Serve with a clear, vinegar-based "Louisiana pepper sauce".

I may like the hash better than the original dinner ...

Sure. All food stuff is non-taxable, anyway - so it's not like it's
getting reported anywhere/anyhow. You should be able to get acess to
them through your church.


I don't know about your State laws but all fod are non-taxable in
Texas (excluding hot deli/prepared items). And when I buy taxable
items such as lump charcoal or certain juices under 50%, they still
tax me at the register even though I have a tax-exempt resale cert.

I am very happy being able to shop there. I really don't understand
why the prices are so cheap when I can buy fairly small quantities -
or rather, large quantities for the same price as small quantities at
the grocer. It's a different world than Costco or Sams.

It's just some sort of Draconian rule of RD that you must have a
resale or exempt cert, but they don't give a hoot how you use it. I'd
be more worried about the local McDonalds cracking down on my beef
purchases than Restaurant Depot or the State Comptroller.

I bought some cool shaped metal cookie cutters that I use for doing
something like this.

I dice the leftovers into 1/4" cubes and lightly pack it into the
cookie cutter which is already in the cast iron pan.

Then I drizzle beaten egg into it to hold it together nicely and heat
it until its golden brown on the bottom side. Then you can remove the
cookie cutter and flip it to finish the other side.

Finding a 5" cookie cutter that has a generic shape is the hard part.

I use a heart shaped and a clover shaped cutter.

Food is subject to some sales taxes here, and I'm not about to break
any laws, however petty. I'd never cheat one bit on taxes. I'm a
liberal, we like taxes :)

I'll contact my friend. Thanks.

Like I said, they charge me taxes, so I'm not ripping anybody off.
And if they didn't charge tax I would have paid them on my quarterly
sales tax report for those items that were taxable.

Since they charge tax, I'm not sure that RD reports anything to the
State Comptroller's office, but rather they leave it up to you to get
credit for it at the end of the quarter. Saves them the paperwork.

So even if you were to sign up as church personnel (which you are,
last I heard) you still wouldn't be skirting any taxes unless you
consider buying at such low prices criminal tax evasion :-)

Yep, that's where we bought it. It was equivalent to packer cut but a really
nicer piece than their usual choice packers with a thick uniform flat and
small point, ideal for slicing.

RD gives certain non-resale groups memberships, such as barbecue teams,
firehouses, and churches. If you have a resale license it's on you to take
advantage of it responsibly. If a lot of stuff is bought by someone as tax
exempt and there is no corresponding resale record for that tax ID number
where it is resold and sales tax collected, eventually it will trip a flag
with the state who will then audit that person, and collect tax, penalty and
interest on anything that went for personal or other non-certifiably tax
exempt use. In Missouri, this is called Use Tax.

I've never cooked a corned beef brisket before, but they were on sale
today for 1.49/lb. Will be looking for methods to cook it.

I'm going to get one this week. I didn't know if they were whole or
just flats. I just saw them in the monthly flyer. They're less than
half the price f supermarket corned beef - none of which I've seen for
less than $3.99 so far.

Non-profits, educational, or government agencies.


Practically everything I buy there is non-taxable. So if I were
reselling those items, I still wouldn't be charging tax. I am listed
as a "specialty food retailer". I am not being things tax exempt that
any other private person would be charged tax for anyway.

As long as I am not in the business of preparing items for sale as
prepared food (ie. a restaurant), then they should not expect any
sales tax from me (or very little).

I just popped a cheap point cut into the pseudo sous vide cooker at
140F. I didn't even open it so the little packet of seasonings isn't
getting utilized. Listening to Shostakovich's 15th Symphony on
youtube. Strange.
