Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 pounds corned beef brisket
- 1.5 pounds baby potatoes
- 4 whole carrots
- 1 large yellow onion
- 1 head cabbage
- 3 whole garlic cloves
- 4 cups beef broth
- 2 whole bay leaves
- 1 teaspoon mustard seeds
- 1 teaspoon whole peppercorns
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.5 teaspoons pepper
Instructions
Rinse the corned beef brisket under cold water to remove excess brine and pat it dry with paper towels.
Place the corned beef brisket in the crock pot, fat side up.
Peel the carrots and slice them into large chunks. Peel and quarter the onion. Mince the garlic cloves.
Add the baby potatoes, carrots, onion, and garlic to the crock pot, distributing them evenly around the brisket.
Pour the beef broth over the brisket and vegetables until they are nearly submerged.
Add the bay leaves, mustard seeds, and whole peppercorns to the crock pot.
Cover the crock pot and cook on LOW for 8 hours, or until the beef is tender and easily falls apart.
Coarsely chop the cabbage into large wedges, removing the core. Add the cabbage to the crock pot for the final 30-45 minutes of cooking.
Before serving, remove the brisket from the crock pot and let it rest for 10 minutes. Slice it thinly against the grain.
Serve the corned beef alongside the cooked vegetables, garnished with fresh parsley. Season with additional salt and pepper to taste.
