Directions

1. Place corned beef in a stockpot and cover with water by at least two inches. Add chopped onion, salt, pepper, and the seasoning packet. Bring to a boil and then reduce heat to low, allowing the meat to simmer for two and a half hours.

2. When corned beef is almost done, wash and cut potatoes into quarters.

3. Remove meat from broth; set aside in a covered dish.

4. Add cut up potatoes and carrots to the broth, turning the heat up to medium low. Cover and slow boil for twenty to thirty minutes, or until the vegetables are tender.

5. While the potatoes and carrots are cooking, remove the end core and damaged outer leaves from the cabbage heads, and then cut the heads into wedges.

6. Pull the potatoes and carrots out of the broth and set them aside in another covered dish.

7. Add the cabbage wedges to the broth and bring to a slow boil. Cook covered for about twenty minutes, or until the cabbage reaches your desired tenderness.

8. While cabbage is cooking, slice corned beef against the grain. (Thickness is personal preference.)

9. Remove cabbage from heat when done. You can scoop out some of the broth and put it over the sliced meat, potatoes, and carrots.

    I have to admit, I’m not a cooked cabbage fan, but yours looks the most appetizing! Maybe I should give it another try, since I was about 10 when I decided I hated it.

    Looks great! And corned beef is one of my favorite ways to have beef! Really good in sandwiches and stuff.

    Will definitely have to make this sometime, I usually make a regular ground beef and cabbage cassorole, this seems like it’d have a better flavor from the corned beef.

    This looks so good. I’ll have to try it once we have some cabbage. I’m dying for spring to get here so we can plant our garden and grow some fresh veggies!

    We LOVE corned beef and cabbage! I make mine in the crock pot, adding the veggies an hour or 2 before we will be eating it. SOOOO good! Can’t wait to pick up a few corned beefs here pretty soon (for cheap)!

    Yum! I grew up with corned beef and cabbage and made it every St Patrick’s Day when my kids were growing up. We don’t really eat much meat anymore so…I might have to just make the vegis. 🙂

    I only have had corned beef in a spanish dish. Rice and corned beef. So good. Never thought of having it plain. In fact dont really get the draw to it. But i guess it must be good reading all of these comments

    Cabbage is one of those grown-up things for me. Hated it till I was kinda old.

    Like mushrooms. And spinach. And even broccoli.

    I missed out on lots of the good stuff when I was young and dumb. =)
