Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 pounds corned beef brisket
- 4 cups water
- 3 cloves garlic cloves, minced
- 1 large onion, quartered
- 4 medium carrots, peeled and cut into chunks
- 6 small red potatoes, halved
- 1 small head cabbage, cut into wedges
- 1 packet spice packet (usually comes with corned beef)
Instructions
Rinse the corned beef brisket under cold water to remove excess brine and pat it dry with paper towels.
Place the brisket in the bottom of the crock pot, fat side up.
Sprinkle the spice packet over the brisket, ensuring it is evenly distributed.
Add the minced garlic and quartered onion around the brisket in the crock pot.
Pour the water into the crock pot, ensuring the brisket is mostly submerged but not entirely covered.
Cover the crock pot with the lid and cook on low heat for 6 hours.
After 6 hours, add the carrots and red potatoes to the crock pot, nestling them around the brisket.
Continue cooking on low heat for another 2 hours.
In the final 30 minutes of cooking, add the cabbage wedges on top of the brisket and vegetables.
Once the cooking time is complete, carefully remove the corned beef from the crock pot and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing against the grain.
Serve the sliced corned beef with the cooked vegetables and ladle some of the flavorful broth over the top if desired. Enjoy!
