Ingredients
Instructions
-
Place the potatoes, onion and baby carrots in the bottom of your slow cooker so they form a sturdy base.
-
Pour in the water and set the brisket on top, fat side up if yours has one.
-
Pour the beer over the brisket, then sprinkle the included spice packet across the top so the flavor settles in as it cooks.
-
Cover the slow cooker and let it cook on high for about 8 hours until the brisket softens and the vegetables are tender.
-
About an hour before serving, stir in the chopped cabbage, cover again and let it soften in the broth.
-
When everything is cooked through, slice the brisket and serve it with the vegetables and a spoonful of the cooking liquid.
Note
This meal stores well in the fridge for several days, making it a great make ahead option.
If you prefer a thicker broth, reduce the water to about 3 cups.
Carrots, parsnips or extra potatoes can be added to stretch the meal for larger families.
