Recipe borrowed with permission from www.welcometothetable.coop
Ingredients
- 5 garlic cloves crushed
- 1 large onion cut in thick vertical wedges
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 2 tablespoons vinegar
- 8 oz. beer
- 3 lbs. corned beef brisket

Servings:
Instructions
- Scatter the garlic and onions in the bottom of the crockpot. Place beef on top of onions and garlic.
- In a cup, mix together water, beer, sugar and vinegar. (If you are not using beer, use water in its place.)
- Pour over beef and then sprinkle the mustard seeds, bay leaves, allspice berries and pepper over the beef.
- Cover the slow cooker and cook on low for 5 hours. Add the carrots, potatoes and cabbage to the slow cooker and stir, then cover and set to high. Cook for another 2 hours. Remove the beef; once it has cooled, slice across the grain into 1/2-inch pieces.
- Taste the broth and season to taste (the corned beef may have salted it enough).
- To serve, place the sliced beef in the hot cabbage broth and let it warm through. Serve warm.
