Ingredients
Scale
- 4 lbs corned beef brisket with spice packet
- 4 cups beef broth
- 1 large onion, quartered
- 4 garlic cloves, peeled
- 4 large carrots, peeled and cut into chunks
- 3 medium potatoes, quartered
- 1 small head of cabbage, cut into wedges
- 2 tbsp mustard seeds (optional)
- Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Rinse the corned beef under cold water and pat dry.
- Place the corned beef in the crock pot, fat side up.
- Sprinkle the included spice packet over the meat along with mustard seeds if using.
- Add onion quarters and garlic cloves around the meat.
- Pour beef broth into the crock pot until it reaches halfway up the sides of the brisket.
- Cover and cook on low for 8 to 10 hours or on high for 4 to 5 hours, until meat is tender.
- About 1 hour before the end of cooking, add carrots and potatoes around the beef.
