I buy whole briskets and brine my own corned beef. I'll make the brine and submerge the brisket in it and put it in a fridge for no less than 2 weeks turning it every day to make sure it is totally brined.
When done, I'll take it out the brine and then put it in a pot of boiling water with a bit of the brine in it and let it slowly boil for about 3 hours or until fork tender.
When done, that stuff is very moist and damn near fork tender.

Here's my recipe for the brine:
1 gallon water
1 cup Kosher Salt
1 tsp. Potassium Nitrate aka Salt Peter --helps keep the meat pink during the soaking process.
5 Bay Leaves
1/2 tsp. Ground Cloves
1 tsp. All-Spice Berries
2 tsp. Whole Peppercorns
1 tsp. Mustard Seed
1 cup White vinegar
1/2 cup Sugar
7 cloves garlic finely minced
Put all this in a pot and boil to blend the ingredients, let cool to room temperature and then place the brisket into the mixture in a crock type dish or a big plastic or glass bowl. Make sure the brisket is covered and refrigerate it for 2-3 weeks before cooking it.
I cook mine in water with some of the brine in it or you can use the brine and put the brisket on a rack above the liquid and steam it. Let it cook for no less than 3 hours for a whole brisket. Times will vary with smaller pieces of meat.
If you want, you can use some of the brine to smother cabbage, potatoes and carrots to go with it.

Definitely going to try this recipe. I love corned beef. I bought three this year when they were available around St Particks day. I cooked them one right after another, had corned beef everyday for about 3 weeks!

I like to smoke corned beef for a couple hours then cook it in the pressure cooker for an hour or so. Then make ruben sandwiches on rye under the broiler. YUM.

Once you smoke corned beef it's called Pastrami. Corned beef is just brined then boiled.
