No St. Patrick's Day is complete without corned beef ? it's as much of an Irish tradition as wearing green! Even with such a classic, there's no one way to cook corned beef: These top-rated recipes include the one-pot simmer, the oven braise, as well as slow cooker and Instant Pot versions. Potatoes and cabbage traditionally round out the Irish feast and are cooked along with the corned beef in many of these recipes. If the hands-off cooking methods and fall-apart tender meat doesn't make corned beef an annual tradition at your house, we don't know what will!

Corned beef doesn't get much more traditional than this recipe. Aromatics like bay leaves, onion, and whole black peppercorns infuse the meat as it simmers and create a flavorful broth for cooking the potatoes and cabbage. "I won't wait until next St. Patty's Day to make this again. Fantastic!" says recipe reviewer NJSS200.

As if corned beef and cabbage wasn't Irish enough, this recipe uses Irish stout beer to gently cook the beef in the slow cooker. A brown sugar rub on the brisket will help to balance the bitter notes from the beer. The addition of sweet potatoes is a great twist on the usual white spuds."This will definitely be my go-to corned beef recipe from now on," says user MKM.

A not-so-Irish technique of piercing the corned beef all over and inserting small slivers of garlic adds so much flavor to this roasted corned beef. Dark beer and whole spices in the roasting pan infuse it with flavor and keep it moist. "The beer and garlic cloves were just a perfect extra to a normal corned beef," says recipe reviewer Donna Warrick.
