Sarah's Slow-Cooker Corned Beef and Cabbage delivers fork-tender brisket nestled with carrots, potatoes, and onions, all simmered in a stout-laced broth. Savoy cabbage finishes in the flavorful cooking liquid for a crisp-tender bite, while a tangy horseradish-sour cream sauce adds zip. Ideal for St. Patrick’s Day or cozy Sunday dinners.

DifficultyEasy

1

Set the corned beef in the bottom of a large slow cooker.
2

Sprinkle the pickling spice over the brisket.
3

Arrange the celery, carrots, potatoes, and onion on top of the brisket in that order.
4

Pour the stout beer into the slow cooker. Add enough hot water to cover the brisket by at least 1 inch.
5

Cook on High until the brisket is as tender as you like, 7 to 8 hours.
6

Lift the brisket and vegetables from the slow cooker into a large bowl; cover with aluminum foil to keep warm.
7

Ladle out 1 cup of the cooking liquid from the slow cooker; pour it into a small pot over medium heat. Simmer until reduced by about half, about 10 minutes. Move the reduced liquid to a small bowl; stir in the horseradish and sour cream to make a sauce.
8

Immerse the cabbage wedges in the liquid left in the slow cooker; cook until the cabbage softens but stays slightly crisp, 20 to 30 minutes. Transfer the cabbage to a platter. Spoon the remaining liquid from the slow cooker into a bowl.
9

Slice the brisket against the grain. Serve with the vegetable mixture, cabbage, horseradish sauce, and the liquid from the slow cooker.
