Juicy, tender corned beef made effortlessly in the slow cooker, then finished under the broiler for a golden, crispy crust. Perfect for holidays or hearty comfort food any time of year.

Ingredients

  • 3 pounds corned beef with seasoning packet
  • 1 cup water
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 2 tablespoons cider vinegar
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper

Instructions

  1. Place the corned beef fat side up in the slow cooker.
  2. Sprinkle seasoning packet, garlic, sugar, and black pepper over the beef. Rub into the surface.
  3. Pour cider vinegar into the side of the cooker and add bay leaf.
  4. Add water to reach about 25% up the side of the meat.
  5. Cover and cook on low for 8–9 hours until tender and sliceable.
  6. Transfer to a baking sheet. Broil for 1–2 minutes, watching closely, until the top is golden and crispy.
  7. Let rest for a few minutes before slicing against the grain to serve.

Notes

  • Add carrots, onions, or potatoes in the last 2–3 hours for a complete meal.
  • Flat cut corned beef slices neatly; point cut is more flavorful.
  • Brush with a mustard and brown sugar glaze before broiling for added flavor.
  • Store leftovers up to 4 days or freeze for up to 2 months.
  • Reheat with a splash of broth or water to retain moisture.
