Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 4 pounds corned beef brisket
  • Juices and spice sack from the corned beef Don't discard these. You will use them.
  • 2 medium onions one peeled and sliced and the other cut into 4-6 chunks
  • 12 baby carrots
  • 12 small red potatoes washed
  • 6 ribs celery cut in 2-inch pieces, celery is optional
  • 3 bay leaves
  • 4-6 cups water
  • 1 head cabbage cut in small chunks

Instructions

  • Heat the oil in a medium skillet.
  • When the oil is hot, place the corned beef in the skillet and brown it just a bit on both sides to seal in the juices. When browned, set it aside to another plate.
  • Sauté the sliced onions until almost transparent. Transfer the onions to your 6-quart slow cooker, placing them along the bottom in a single layer.
  • Return the skillet to the stovetop and cook the carrots until they start to brown slightly.
  • Dump the carrots into the slow cooker.
  • Add the remaining onion, potatoes and celery, if using, to the slow cooker.
  • Place the corned beef brisket on top of the vegetables.
  • Cover the vegetables and meat with water (you may need about 4 cups)
  • Add the bay leaves, pickling spices and juices to the slow cooker.
  • Cook on low for 7-8 hours.
  • Add the cabbage to the pot about an hour before you wish to eat (or my preference is to steam it separately for about 20 minutes).
  • Continue cooking on low for about 1 hour.
