EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

Since the shape of corned beef can vary, halve or trim it so it easily fits in the slow cooker and is covered with water. Uncovered portions will cook more slowly and may be dry.

This is a wonderful recipe! I make this every year on March 17. Served with a side of fried cabbage - now that's "good eatin". To the reviewer who said it was falling apart - that's wonderful! I prefer it "pulled" or shredded instead of sliced. Corned Beef can be so tough that's why the crockpot version is so great. Most reviewers say they have a lot of fat in their corned beef. I have not encountered that problem. Maybe depends on the cut?

Since corned beef really doesn't have a tremendous amount on meat, celebrate the vegetables with the adding a tremendous flavor. The leftover broth can be made into a delicious soup. Just add some frozen mixed vegetables, barley or rice and perhaps some browned ground beef or turkey. Fantastic!

Corned Beef is naturally quite fatty but you can certainly trim as much as possible before cooking. The flat cuts are less fatty than the point cuts. They are also quite a bit more expensive. We love corned beef with potatoes and cabbage so you could adapt this recipe to your liking. I have also cooked corned beef covered in water on both the stovetop and in the oven. I add the potatoes and cabbage at the end of the cooking time.
