1 organic beef brisket
¼ cup pickling spices
1 onion, cut into quarters
Drizzle of olive oil
2 cans beer (Alan uses gluten-free beer)
4 carrots, cut on diagonal in 4 pieces
3 potatoes, quartered
1 cabbage, quartered
Yellow mustard
Generously rub the pickling spice on all sides of the brisket. Place the onion pieces into a slow cooker and drizzle with olive oil. Place the seasoned brisket on top of the onions. Pour the beer into the slow cooker (careful not to knock the spices off the meat). Cover and slow cook on low for about 3 hours.
Remove the lid and add the carrots, potatoes and cabbage. Cover and continue cooking for another 3-5 hours until the corned beef shreds easily and the vegetables are tender. To serve, placeindividual pieces of corned beef with cabbage, onion, carrots and potatoes into shallow serving bowls and cover each with a spoonful of sauce. Pass the yellow mustard! Happy St. Patrick’s Day!

Hi. I tried this recipe and did not care for it as well. I am sure it had everything to do with the beer. I used Guinness stout and i have no idea what the others were. The veggies had a bitter taste and we could not eat them. What a bummer! Could we get the beer (name) which you use? I tried to find gluten free beer as well, no one could help me. How about that! Wow!
Thanks for sharing your recipe, and I add sliced garlic (5 cloves) and small amount of Better Than Boullion chicken to one cup water. I put this in first with the beer. It was so good. We also decided to have a shot of Jameson. It was fun. Happy St Pattys.
The spices are usually included with the corned beef at the stores
Thanks Suzzane! I’m part Irish too, from my Grandma, and so St. Patrick’s Day was ALWAYS special with all kinds of good food at her house. Jackie’s family put the cabbage in just like our family did at hour 6, and my Grandma put her pickling spices in a little mesh bag (a cloth tea bag would work). This way we were not picking out the peppercorns, etc.
Here’s a St. Patrick’s Day Blessing for All ~
“May the road rise up to meet you.
May the wind be always at your back.
May the sun shine warm upon your face;
the rains fall soft upon your fields and until we meet again,
May God hold you in the palm of His hand.”
