This slow cooker corned beef and cabbage recipe delivers incredibly tender brisket and soft vegetables with minimal effort. It is a classic, comforting Irish boiled dinner perfect for St. Patrick’s Day or any family meal.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 (3 to 4 pound) corned beef brisket with spice packet
  • 1 cup water or beef broth
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon whole black peppercorns
  • 1 teaspoon mustard seeds
  • 1 pound small red potatoes, halved
  • 4 medium carrots, peeled and cut into 2-inch pieces
  • 1 medium head green cabbage, cut into 8 wedges
  • Optional: Prepared horseradish sauce for serving

Instructions

  1. Place the corned beef brisket, fat side up, in the basin of your slow cooker. Sprinkle the contents of the spice packet over the meat.
  2. In a small bowl, combine the water or broth, apple cider vinegar, peppercorns, and mustard seeds. Pour this liquid mixture around the corned beef in the slow cooker.
  3. Cover the slow cooker and cook on LOW for 8 to 10 hours, or on HIGH for 4 to 5 hours, until the beef is very tender.
  4. About 1 hour before the cooking time is complete, arrange the potatoes and carrots around the brisket.
  5. Add the cabbage wedges on top of the potatoes and carrots. Cover and continue cooking until the vegetables are tender, about 45 minutes to 1 hour.
  6. Carefully remove the corned beef brisket from the slow cooker and place it on a cutting board. Tent it loosely with foil and let it rest for 10 minutes.
  7. Slice the corned beef thinly against the grain.
  8. Serve the sliced beef with the cooked cabbage, potatoes, and carrots. Offer prepared horseradish sauce on the side.

Notes

  • For the most tender corned beef brisket, cook on the LOW setting for the full duration.
  • If you prefer a richer broth, you can substitute the water with an equal amount of beef broth.
  • Save any leftover corned beef to make a fantastic Reuben sandwich or corned beef hash the next day.
