The spleen is an organ in the upper left abdomen, which filters blood, disposes of worn-out red blood cells, and provides a 'reserve supply' of blood. It contains both red tissue, and white lymphatic tissue. The major (encapsulated) lymphatic organs are the lymph nodes, thymus and spleen.
Place the brined corned beef in a large pot or Dutch oven along with the liquid and spices that accompanied it in the package. Pour in enough water to cover the beef, then bring the water to a boil on the stovetop. Reduce the heat to a simmer, and cover the pot. A three-pound corned beef could take three hours or more to become perfectly tender. Check the meat occasionally, adding more water if necessary. The beef is ready when it pulls apart easily.
Report Abuse. First, get your frying pan really hot...if the beef is lean...add a bit of oil. Add the beef to a hot frying pan..keep breaking up the meat..after it browns..I would say 5 minutes or so...push the meat to the side and cook the onions in the middle.1 pound of ground beef should not take longer than 7-10 minutes to cook. Turn the heat down as the beef browns.I put paper towels in a bowl, put the beef mixture in the bowl and let it drain. Put beef back in pan and add sloppy joe sauce, spaghetti sauce or whatever you want to do with your meal.eport Abuse. First, get your frying pan really hot...if the beef is lean...add a bit of oil.
