Step

  • 1

    If your corned beef came with a seasoning packet, set it aside for later. Soak the meat in cool water in the refrigerator for about 8 hours, changing the water every 2 hours. Set the included seasoning packet aside.

    When ready to cook, set the Traeger temperature to 180℉ and preheat with the lid closed for 15 minutes. For optimal flavor, use Super Smoke, if available.
