Place brisket in large, heavy pot and
cover with water. Add onion. Crush
garlic and add to pot. Add peppercorns
and allspice. Bring to boil. Skim foam
from top.
Reduce heat so that water bubbles
occasionally. Cover and cook for about
2 hours, turning every 30 minutes.
After 1 1/2 hours check with thin knife.
When knife will penetrate brisket
easily it is done. Drain and remove to a
warm platter. Skim fat from broth. Add
cabbage to broth. Heat to boiling, then
reduce heat to simmer for about 15
minutes.
For a New England Boiled Dinner add
1 potato and 1 carrot per serving. Add
