This corned beef is so easy and so delicious. The hardest part is peeling the carrots, but you could use baby carrots to make it even easier. A complete comfort food meal from one pot.

How To Make slow-cooker corned beef & cabbage

  • Step 1
    Add 1/2 tablespoon vegetable oil to bowl of slow-cooker; use a paper towel to grease the inside of the bowl.
  • Step 2
    Add the brisket and any juices from it's package (watch for the spice packet!)
  • Step 3
    Open spice packet and add to the juices.
  • Corned beef, carrots, potatoes and cabbage placed in slow cooker.
    Step 4
    In the following order add chopped onion, carrots, potatoes and cabbage chunks/wedges.
  • Step 5
    Place lid on slow-cooker, set on high heat and cook for 2 hours, then set heat to low and cook for additional 4 hours. (*If you wish to cook on low heat only, add 2 hours to total time. Also, additional time may be required if using extra-large brisket.)

    Carefully remove cabbage, potatoes and carrots to serving dish/platter; cover and keep warm.
  • Corned beef brisket, sliced.
    Step 7
    Carefully lift brisket from slow-cooker and place on cutting board or platter; slice into desired thickness (I use an electric knife.)
