Recipe: Corned Beef And Cabbage For St. Patrick's Day

Rory Dolan’s serves mouth-watering Irish specialties like fish and chips, traditional lamb stew, and Shepherd’s Pie all yearlong. But when March rolls around, Dolan’s is always prepared to cook anywhere from four to six thousand pounds of the perfectly cured beef brisket, known affectionately as corned beef.

“Early in March people walk in here wearing all green,” said Rory Dolan, the owner of his namesake restaurant and bar at 890 McLean Avenue, a famously Irish section of Yonkers. “They want to come out and get that Irish flavor.”

Dolan’s head chef, Bernard Roddy, prepares the flat top corned beef four to five hundred pounds at a time during the time around St. Patrick’s Day.

While Dolan’s regular Irish customers may have their own St. Patrick’s recipes down by heart, we asked Roddy to provide his for those who want to give the classic holiday dish a shot.
