About Me

Hi all, and welcome to The Comer Experience. Howdy, we are John and Gena. Gena is born and raised in Southern Oklahoma. John is a military brat, raised in New York for his first few years. He spent 5 years in Okinawa, Japan before moving to Oklahoma. Both of us have been married before, and have finally found our comfort in each other since 1999. We got married on July 4, 2006, and it makes Independence Day something much better to celebrate. We have hit a point in our life together that now we want to share our experiences with everyone. We want to take you on a trip through the everyday lives of our family. We have started this blog to give people a look into what our family enjoys, and goes through. You will see some great cooking from John, who learned from helping his mother in the kitchen. With his mix of Italian and Irish background he enjoys experimenting and making great food. We will also take you on our journey into learning photography and we would love to hear your critiques on our pictures. All and all we hope you enjoy your journey with us and can laugh and learn from our experiences. Enjoy and lots of fun, John & Gena #TheComerExperience

Happy St. Patty's Day with Corned Beef and Cabbage

Well it is St. Paddy's Day and what better than Corned Beef and Cabbage.  If your a fan of Food Network and Guy Fieri than you know how much he loves his corned beef, well I am the same I could eat this just about everyday.  Now there are many ways to make this and I have come to like this way.  I am not one that likes the little spice pack that comes with the corned beef, but for the ones that do add it in to your pot.  



Ingredients:
  • 1 package of Corned Beef
  • 6 red potatoes
  • 1 head of green cabbage
  • salt and pepper
  • water


Directions:


Remove the beef from the package and rinse under cold water.(retain spice pack if using)

Place beef in large pot.(add spice pack over top if using)


Cut the potatoes into quarters.


Place the potatoes around the beef.


Put enough water in to just come over the top of the beef.


Quarter you cabbage and then cut into slices.


Place in pot over beef and potatoes.


Salt and Pepper to taste.



Cook on lowest heat for 2 hours, remove beef and slice, returning back to pot to heat back up.


You can either plate this on a flat plate like the beginning picture, or in a bowl like a soup.
I hope you enjoy.
