Cooking Corned Beef in the crock pot ensures the meat will be extremely tender. It also allows the juices from the beef brisket to combine with the vegetables to make them especially succulent. This recipe is as basic as you can get, but it delivers a consistently tender brisket.

INGREDIENTS:

• 6 Carrots (cut into 1″ slices)
• 2 Medium Onions (cut into quarters)
• 3 pound corned beef brisket
• 1 cup water
• 1 small head of cabbage (cut into wedges)

DIRECTIONS:

1. Put carrots, onions, beef brisket, and water in the slow cooker in the order listed.
2. Cook on LOW for about 8 hours.
3. Add Cabbage Wedges to the slow cooker, turn on HIGH then continue cooking for another 2 to 3 hours.

SUGGESTIONS:

• Enjoy with Boiled Potatoes or Irish Soda Bread
• If you don’t have 10 hours until dinner you can speed up the cooking time by cooking on LOW for 4 hours and then on HIGH for 4 hours.
• Trim any additional fat around the brisket AFTER cooking to cut fat while ensuring the meat stays moist and delicious.
