Ingredients
  

  • 3 to 4 pounds corned beef brisket
  • 1 onion
  • 3 cloves garlic
  • 2 bay leaves
  • 2 ½ to 3 cups water
  • 2 pounds potatoes
  • 2 carrots
  • 1 small head green cabbage

Instructions
 

  • Prepare the Beef: Rinse the corned beef under cold water and place it fat-side up in the slow cooker. Sprinkle the spice packet over the meat, then add the onion, garlic, and bay leaves. Pour in enough water to partially cover the brisket.
  • Slow Cook the Beef: Cover and cook on low for 7-8 hours or high for 4-5 hours until the beef is fork-tender. Avoid opening the lid too often.
  • Add the Vegetables: With 2 hours left, add the potatoes and carrots around the beef. Let them cook in the flavorful broth.
  • Cook the Cabbage: With 45 minutes left, place the cabbage wedges on top. Cover and continue cooking until tender but not mushy.
  • Rest and Slice: Remove the beef from the slow cooker and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing against the grain for tenderness.
