• servings: 8 servings
• active time: 10 minutes
• total time: 9 hours 10 minutes

Ingredients

1 large onion, large dice

6 carrots, peeled, cut in large chunks

4 celery stalks, cut in large chunks

3-4 pounds corned beef brisket with seasoning packet, drained

4 cups unsalted beef stock

12 ounces lager beer (can use water, more beef stock or even a dark soda like Coke)

Directions

Place 1 large onion, large dice, 6 carrots, peeled, cut in large chunks and 4 celery stalks, cut in large chunks into the bottom of an 8-quart slow cooker.

Place 3-4 pounds corned beef brisket with seasoning packet, drained on top and sprinkle the seasoning mix over everything.

Pour in 4 cups unsalted beef stock, followed by 12 ounces lager beer.

Cover and cook on low for 8-9 hours (note: cooking on low instead of high for a shorter period of time will give you the most tender meat).

Remove the corned beef from the cooker and leave the liquid in the pot (note: you can discard the vegetables or enjoy them with the corned beef).

Slice and serve with some of the liquid drizzled on top to keep it moist.
