Corned and spiced beef brisket may be the most popular St. Patrick’s Day dinner choice in this country. We’ll get our fill of thin slices piled high on a sandwich, thank you. Fresh beef, simmered in Guinness to melty tenderness, warms our souls and rekindles fond memories on St. Patrick’s Day.

The whole family enjoyed plenty of slow-cooked beef while vacationing in Ireland. Super tender, meaty stews and pot roasts packed with flavor and winter-friendly root vegetables. Thick slabs of hearty breads and Irish butter accompanied our meals; we happily mopped up every bit of the beefy sauces.
