I have tried a lot of variations in cooking corned beef. Some of your recipes mama are really intriguing me. I love trying those recipes of yours.

Here is a recipe I did in the slow cooker (6 quarts):

1 3lb brisket with spice pack
2 bottles dark beer
1 teaspoon dry mustard or to taste
1 small head cabbage, chopped
2 carrots, peeled and cut into large chunks
1 medium yellow onion

Put enough carrots and onions on the bottom of the slow cooker so the meat will not make direct contact with the cooker surface. Place the brisket fat side up and sprinkle the rest of the veggies around it. Add the spice pack and dry mustard and then the beer. Cook for about 8 hours or until meat is cooked the way you like it.

Enjoy!

Then we made some sandwiches with this corned beef.

We slice up some of the meat and put it on marble rye with some spicy brown mustard and some jarlsberg cheese. Then a few minutes in the panini press to make it all toasty and melted.

That was the best part of this. The original recipe was very good, but making the grilled sandwich with it was heaven on earth.

Enjoy!
