Ingredients

  • corned beef with spice packet
    3 lb
  • bay leaves

    ½ tsp
  • beef broth
    5 c

    1 ½ lb
  • small red potatoes
    2 lb

    cut into 8 wedges

    1 large

Directions

  1. 1

    Remove the corned beef from the packaging and rinse well.

    Place the meat in the bottom of a large dutch oven, then sprinkle with the contents of the spice packet and add 2 bay leaves and 1/2 teaspoon black peppercorns.

  3. 3

    Add enough beef broth or water to cover the meat completely.

  4. 4

    Place on the stove and bring to a boil, then cover and reduce the heat to a simmer. Let the meat cook in the simmering liquid for about 2 1/2 hours.

  5. 5

    Add the carrots and potatoes, making sure to move the meat if necessary so the vegetables can cook in the liquid. If needed, add an additional 2 cups of hot water to the cooking liquid. Continue to cook for 30 minutes until the potatoes and carrots are tender.

  6. 6

    Add the cabbage wedges, pushing them down into the cooking liquid, and cook for 15 minutes longer.

  7. 7

    Remove the meat, potatoes, and vegetables from the pot. Slice the meat into thin slices against the grain, then serve on a large platter surrounded by the boiled potatoes, carrots and cabbage.

Corned Beef and Cabbage

The addition of potatoes and carrots makes this corned beef and cabbage recipe not only great on St. Patrick’s Day but a satisfying meal any day. Cure beef brisket in a salty, spiced brine and it becomes savory, tangy and aromatic corned beef. Get a corned beef made from flat-cut brisket, if you can, as it will be easier to slice into neat, uniform slabs. (The point cut has more striations of fat and may fall apart when sliced.) Braise the meat until tender, and add the vegetables toward the end of the braising time so they’ll absorb the beef juices and soften until perfectly crisp-tender. Finish the beef with a simple honey-mustard glaze and a quick broil to caramelize, then serve it with more Dijon mustard and beer. (Here are slow cooker and pressure cooker versions of the recipe.)

About this Recipe

Craving a truly heartwarming and classic meal that brings everyone to the table? This Corned Beef and Cabbage (Stove Top) recipe is the ultimate one-pot dish, perfect for St. Patrick's Day or any occasion that calls for tender, flavorful comfort food.

This recipe excels by combining brined and spiced corned beef with simple, hearty vegetables in a single pot, infusing every bite with rich flavor. It’s designed to feed a crowd, offering a complete, satisfying main course that delivers on classic expectations. The inclusion of a spice packet ensures an authentically seasoned experience, while beef broth provides a rich cooking liquid that moistens the meat and flavors the accompanying vegetables.

You'll savor incredibly tender, melt-in-your-mouth corned beef, infused with the aromatic spices from its cooking liquid, complemented by bay leaves and black peppercorns. The accompanying carrots and small red potatoes become wonderfully fork-tender, absorbing the savory beef broth. Finally, the large head of green cabbage wedges soften just enough to complement the rich meat without losing their fresh bite, rounding out this robust and comforting meal. Each generous serving offers a substantial 501 calories, making it a truly satisfying main course.

While this recipe is a classic for a reason, you can easily adapt it. For a different vegetable profile, consider adding pearl onions or parsnips alongside the carrots and potatoes. If you prefer a milder spice, you can adjust the amount of black peppercorns included during cooking.

This classic corned beef and cabbage is tailor-made for celebrations like St. Patrick's Day, or as a cozy Sunday dinner. Serve it directly from the pot for a rustic family-style presentation, perhaps alongside a crusty bread to soak up the flavorful broth.
