It is great in the crockpot with just a can of beer and the season packet.
Growing up, my mom cooked corned beef hash a lot. Using the juices from cooking the corned beef, add diced potatoes and onions. You can add carrots adn celery, if desired. Salt and pepper to taste. Thinken the sauce and cook till veggies are tender. Yum!! I have not cooked this myself (yet), so I don’t know how long it takes to cook if you use the crock pot. This is definitely something I’m trying this weekend!!
I cooked mine with 1 cup brown sugar water and a can of beer. I also spread veggies underneath the meat and added yellow mustard on top along with the seasoning packet. My husband LOVES corned beef so this was a hit at our house.
I cook mine in a roasting pan or crockpot with a cabbage cut up, red potatoes, and carrots. Add water to almost cover. Cook in oven or crockpot on low till tender.
My corned beef story – I married an man with Irish roots – so being the faithful, diligent, Proverbs 31 woman, I made him corned beef and cabbage for St Patrick’s Day for the first 6-7 years of our marriage (we’ve been married 11 years now). Last year, I just didn’t get around to buying it or making it. I apologized to hubby for that. He said, no biggie, that he had never really had corned beef and cabbage until I started making it for him. So go figure!!
My husband is Irish also and I made the cornbeef and cabbage dish each year also:-) Until a couple of years ago.
Can you share your recipe for freezer potatoes? I would love to take advantage of Kroger’s sale on potatoes this week but since it’s just hubby and I the bag goes bad before we can use it all.
Try potato soup! It is only my husband, me and a three year old so I struggled with how to use all the potatoes. I did Kelly’s steak fries and froze them – but last night made a huge batch of potato soup – some to eat and some to freeze… super easy…
Peel and chop 10 – 12potatoes
Peel and chop 1 onion
Put in pot, Cover with water and boil until potatoes are tender
Gently mash the potatoes (just a bit so water gets some tiny potato pieces in it)
add 1 cup milk
a 1 stick of butter ( you can omit this – but it makes it SO GOOD!)
salt & pepper to taste.
I serve it sprinkled with cheese and corn muffins. Also good with tortilla chips.
Freezes very well!!!!
We love to use our leftover cornbeef to make Rueben quesadilla.
Well the sauerktaut startecd out green 🙂
Ha ha! Lana you are right. I thought about that after I typed it up! 🙂
Hi,
I usually fix carrots, new potatos, and cabbage with my corned beef. Heard a good tip on making a Ruben Sandwich. Rinse and drain well the sourkraut and mix the dressing into that. Makes it a little less wet.
I so enjoy your website.

My mother always cooked it in a heavy pot with water, string beans, carrots AND (a must) cabbage. That’s the way I do it too…several hours (4-50 over low heat.). The key to it is to use “flat cut” rather than “point cut”, which is much tougher.
Next time add enough water to cover the brisket. That is why is was too dry.
