Ingredients

• 3 pounds corned beef brisket
• 4 medium carrots, peeled and cut into 2-inch pieces
• 1 large yellow onion, peeled and quartered
• 6 medium Yukon Gold potatoes, quartered
• 1 head green cabbage, cut into wedges
• 3 cloves garlic cloves, minced
• 4 cups beef broth
• 2 leaves bay leaves
• 1 teaspoon whole black peppercorns
• 1 teaspoon mustard seeds (optional)
• 1 packet seasoning packet (from the corned beef brisket)
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Unwrap the corned beef brisket and rinse it under cold water to remove excess salt. Pat it dry with paper towels.

Step 2

Place the brisket in the bottom of a large crock pot. Sprinkle the seasoning packet that came with the corned beef over the top.

Step 3

Add the minced garlic, quartered onion, carrots, and potatoes to the crock pot, arranging them around the brisket.

Step 4

Pour the beef broth into the crock pot, ensuring it partially covers the brisket and vegetables. Add the bay leaves, peppercorns, and mustard seeds (if using).

Step 5

Cover the crock pot with the lid and cook on LOW for 8-9 hours or on HIGH for 4-5 hours, until the beef is tender and easily shreds with a fork.

Step 6

During the last 1.5 to 2 hours of cooking time, carefully add the cabbage wedges to the crock pot, placing them on top of the other ingredients. Replace the lid and continue cooking.

Step 7

Once the cooking time is complete, remove the corned beef from the crock pot and let it rest on a cutting board for 10 minutes before slicing against the grain.

Step 8

Transfer the vegetables and cabbage to a serving platter, arranging them around the sliced corned beef.

Step 9

Garnish the dish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.

Step 10

Serve warm and enjoy your Crock Pot Corned Beef and Cabbage!
