This Slow Cooker Corned Beef Recipe is easy to throw together and will be a great addition to any St. Patrick’s Day Party! Well, I finally got around to curing my own corned beef this year and there is no going back….it was the best thing EVER. Make your own corned beef or buy a store bought package, either way it will turn out great.
Just because I’ve spent 7 days preparing the perfect corned beef doesn’t mean clean up has to be a pain. I’m a huge fan of slow cooker liners for easy clean up. A long day of cooking in the slow cooker can make the crock hard to clean sometimes with baked on bits of food. So my crock is always lined with a slow cooker liner.
The bright red coloring is from the corning of the beef. Corned beef is always a beautiful bright red color after it’s slow cooked to perfection. Traditional corned beef is boiled and you can certainly do that on the stove top, but I prefer the hands off approach of using my slow cooker. Plus the house smells divine while it cooks!
Are you a corned beef fan? Have you ever thought about making your own?

This brought back such good memories of my childhood. Isn’t it funny how flavors can transport you to a time and place? My boys loved it, by the way. Will will make it again for our St. Paddy’s Day celebrations.
During winter and again closer to St. Patrick’s Day a friend of the family would make her favorite corned beef recipe and have us over for dinner. But after tasting yours I have to confess – your recipe is twice as delicious! I love that it’s simple and easy to make in a handy slow cooker.
I adore corned beef. Hubby isn’t much f a fan, I dont know why. Oddly enough I have always made the corner beef by itself, and the sides by them selves. Hubby will eat the sides and I have to make him a burger or whatever. Yours looks great.
I love slow cooking and I love using those liners. Makes cleaning up simple and easy
The liners are amazing! I made a casserole the other day and forgot to put one in….I probably spent 30 minutes plus soaking to get my crock totally clean! Love ’em! w-
Slower cooker cooking is one of my favorites – this looks really good.
