Does anyone know of any stores that are still selling corned beef? Not restaurants, but stores where I can buy it to cook at home. Preferably in or around Berkeley. Thanks!
FYI, I found some at Whole Foods (Berkeley). It was brined in-house. I will make it tonight or tomorrow and report back on how it was. They said that they can make it year-round, I just need to let them know about a week in advance. Good to know.
I've seen it at Safeway in both Alameda and Oakland (Grand) in the last week. Don't know if it's leftover from St. Patrick's day, or if it's something they regularly stock.
During St. Patty's week, TJ was selling Nieman Ranch CB briskets. I'm not sure if NR produces it year round but a decent butcher, Berkeley Bowl, etc. should be able to special order.
