St. Patrick's Day is the prefect time to serve a traditional Corned Beef and Cabbage Dinner!  I must admit, this was not a common dinner in my house while growing up...so I had never even tried corned beef until I got married and my husband made it for dinner one night.  We now make this a few times a year and it is always a big hit with everyone!

Ingredients:

3 lbs Corned Beef, with seasoning packet
1 cabbage, cut into 4 wedges
4 carrots, peeled and cut into 3” pieces
6 red potatoes
1 onion, rough chopped
2 qts beef broth or water
1 can stout beer, optional
 
Horseradish Sauce

1 cup mayonnaise
½ cup horseradish
½ tsp granulated garlic
½ tsp lemon juice
salt and pepper to taste
  
Directions:
  1. Place corned beef, seasoning packet, cabbage, carrots, potatoes and onion in a slow cooker.
  2. Cover with beef broth (or water) and add the stout (if using)
  3. Cook on high for 8hrs
  4. Remove meat from slow cooker and let rest for 10 minutes.  Slice against the grain.
  5. Serve hot with cabbage, broth, vegetables and horseradish sauce.
