Ingredients
>
1 (11.2 oz) bottle stout beer
>
1 (12 oz) bottle lager
>
2 cups low-sodium beef broth
>
4 sprigs fresh thyme
>
1 (3 1/2 lb) corned beef brisket with spice packet
>
1 1/2 lbs baby potatoes, scrubbed
>
2 large carrots, cut into 2-inch pieces
>
1/2 head green cabbage, cut into 1/4-inch wedges
>
spicy brown mustard, to serve
Steps
1
Into a 5- to 6-qt slow cooker, add the beer, beef broth, and thyme. Season the brisket with salt and pepper and add to slow cooker fat-side up, sprinkling spices from the packet on top.
2
Top brisket with the potatoes and carrots. Cover and cook on high 4–5 hours, until brisket is tender.
3
When brisket is tender, place the cabbage over beef. Cover and cook 30 min.–1 hour on high, until cabbage is wilted and tender.
4
Remove corned beef and slice against the grain. Serve with vegetables and mustard.
Tips
If your corned beef brisket doesn’t come with a pickling spice packet, add 1 tbsp jarred pickling spice.
