Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 6 servings

  • ¼ medium white onion, chopped

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1 (2 pound) corned beef brisket with spice packet

  • 4 cups water

  • 2 large bay leaves

  • 7 medium Yukon Gold potatoes, quartered

  • 4 medium carrots, cut into 1-inch chunks

  • ⅓ medium head cabbage, coarsely chopped

  • 2 tablespoons butter

  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour

  • 1 cup beef broth

  • ½ cup Irish stout beer (such as Guinness®)

  • 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard

  • 1 teaspoon ground black pepper

  • ½ teaspoon salt

Directions

  1. Place onion and garlic in a slow cooker. Put corned beef brisket on top. Pour in water, then add bay leaves and spice packet. Cover and cook on Low for 8 hours, adding potatoes at the 3-hour mark, carrots at the 4-hour mark, and cabbage at the 6-hour mark.

  2. Turn off the slow cooker. Remove brisket to a platter and tent with aluminum foil for 10 minutes to let juices settle.

  3. Meanwhile, melt butter in a saucepan over medium-low heat. Stir in flour to make a roux; cook to burn out any flour taste, about 5 minutes. Whisk in, a little at a time, beef broth, Guinness®, and mustard. Stir until gravy is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon. Stir in pepper and salt.

  4. Slice meat across the grain and plate with cabbage, potatoes, and carrots. Ladle gravy over top.
