Corned Beef for Sandwiches in a Slow Cooker

Corned Beef for Sandwiches in a Slow Cooker

I cooked up this slow cooker corned beef specifically to make corned beef hash, but the leftovers were great sliced thin in a sandwich.

Prep Time:

Cook Time:
6 hrs
Total Time:

Yield:
10 servings

Ingredients

  • 1 (4 pound) corned beef brisket, seasoning packet discarded
  • 1 tablespoon whole black peppercorns
  • 4 whole cloves
  • ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 1 pinch ground cinnamon
  • 1 (15 ounce) can dark Irish stout beer (such as Guinness®)
  • 2 medium heads garlic, cloves separated
  • 4 bay leaves

Directions

Step 1
Place brisket, fat-side down, into a slow cooker. Cover with hot water and cook on High for 1 hour. Drain and discard water from the slow cooker.

Step 2
Add peppercorns, cloves, cayenne, and cinnamon to a tea ball or spice bag. Place in the slow cooker with beer, garlic cloves, and bay leaves. Add more water to just cover the brisket.

Step 3
Cook on Medium for 5 hours. Remove brisket carefully; it will be very tender and may fall apart or break in half. Let meat rest before slicing.

Cook’s Notes:

Try to choose a corned beef brisket that is rectangular, does not taper down at one end, and that contains less fatty deposits.
