Jul 17, Crockpot Brisket - Corned Beef Brisket Recipe

This is a good crockpot brisket recipe. It's actually a homemade corned beef brisket recipe cooked in a slow cooker. It has a really mild corned beef flavor because of the short marinating time.

I guess a better name would be a corned beef style brisket.

It's comparatively quick, however, and making corned beef from scratch means you are in charge of what goes in it. No chemicals mean better corned beef brisket.

Other than that this is a pretty straightforward corned beef and cabbage recipe done in the slow cooker.

Corned Beef-Style Crockpot BrisketIngredients

1 small onion, minced
3 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 cup Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
3 bay leaves, crumbled
8 whole black peppercorns, crushed
1 tablespoon pickling salt
1 teaspoon chopped fresh parsley
1 teaspoon celery seed
1 (4 pound) beef brisket
1 cup water
4 carrots, peeled and cut into 1-inch chunks
1/2 small head cabbage, sliced into strips

Directions

Stir together the minced onion, minced garlic, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, crumbled bay leaves, crushed peppercorns, salt, chopped fresh parsley, and celery seed in a bowl.

Rub the brisket with the corned beef mixture, wrap tightly, and refrigerate overnight.

To cook the brisket, place it into a slow cooker along with the cup of water. Cover, and cook on low for 5 hours. Add the peeled cut carrots, and cabbage strips, and continue cooking until the brisket is tender, about 3 hours more.

Good to Know: This corned beef brisket recipe has a very mild corned beef flavor. That's because it's not true corned beef.

For a traditional corned beef use our Homemade Corned Beef recipe.

On Your Own: A typical New England boiled beef dinner should have potatoes. Feel free to add potatoes to this recipe as you like.

Another twist is to use beer instead of the water. Not typically New England but very good anyway.

This recipe turns out great as is. It's a good change from a typical boiled dinner and a great twist on Crockpot Brisket.
