The Irish don't really eat corned beef and cabbage, but sweeping generalizations are hard to erase. Enjoy anyway. Serves four.

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • 4 lbs. corned beef brisket
  • 3 medium onions - quartered
  • 1/2 small head of cabbage - cut into wedges
  • 3 carrots - cut into 3-inch pieces
  • Groceries
  • Crock-Pots
  1. Step 1

    Put carrots, corned beef brisket, onions and 1 c. water into Crock-Pot.

  2. Step 2

    Cover and cook on low 8 to 10 hours.

  3. Step 3

    Add cabbage wedges and push down until they are moistened.

  4. Step 4

    Replace cover, turn Crock-Pot to high, and cook 2 to 3 hours more.

Tips & Warnings
  • Serve with boiled or steamed potatoes and mustard.
  • The "corned" in corned beef means that it's been cured with salt. You buy it already "corned."

on 3/16/2008 Just a weird pet peeve: Baby carrots may be cute, but regular carrots have more flavor=nutrients and are thriftier. Baby carrots are often just regular older carrots that have been razored down and prepackaged, so you're paying for convenience, but losing nutrients and flavor.
