Roast....................Corned Brisket! Hmmm

Was I looking forward to our roast dinner Wednesday night? Yes I was! After a hard day at the office! and the drive home in the rain, I walked in the back door to a delicious if slightly 'unusual' aroma of roast beef and all the trimmings.

I changed my clothes and walked into the kitchen where Dad was carving the 'roast' and Allan serving the vegetables - looked great - hang on, let me look again!

The meat looked rather pink! I commented, "Has that roast been cooked ong enough, it looks very pink? or................................hmmm, looks a little like a piece of corned meat that has been roasted!"

Allan (the chef)'s response, "What? You're Kidding? I #@**%#@!!!!

This was the third time he had either roasted the corned meat or boiled the roast!!!!

After a few more self depreciating expletives we settled down to eat our roast corned brisket, it tasted better than it sounded, but not quite as good as the photos show it looks!
