Corned Beef and Cabbage



Recipe Name: Corned Beef and Cabbage

Story: This is probably one of the simplest meals to make yet has a lot of flavor and vegetables.  I cook it in a slow cooker.

Years you've been making it: Years

Author / Creator: Mom / Suzy (Corned Beef Company) they have already done half the work for you.

Submitted by: Mom / Suzy

Ingredients: 
  • 1 pkg of Corned beef around 2 lbs
  • 2 carrots
  • 1 onion
  • 1-2 stalks of celery
  • 1 small cabbage
  • spice packet from corned beef package

Directions: 
  1. If there is a lot of fat on the corned beef, slice some of it off
  2. Cut all the vegetables in bit size pieces, the cabbage can be cut up in quarters
  3. Place the vegetables in the slow cooker, and the corned beef on top.
  4. Pour enough water to cover the corned beef and sprinkle the seasoning around the corned beef and vegetables
  5. Cook for 8-10 hrs on low.  Usually 8 hrs is good unless you have a large piece of meat.
  6. Once the meat is done remove and let rest for a short time then slice across the grain in fairly thin pieces.  If you do not cut across the grain or large pieces it will be tough.
  7. Strain the vegetables and serve with the corned beef.

Notes: 
Condiments that accentuate this meal is mustard, my favorite is dijon, dill pickles, pickled beets, and garlic rolls.
