Ingredients

1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1/2 onion, chopped
1/2 bell pepper, chopped
1 (12 ounce) can corned beef (Hormel or other brand)
kosher salt & freshly ground black pepper
1 dash italian seasoning (optional)
1 dash dried basil (optional)
1 dash dried parsley (optional)
1 dash chili powder (optional)
1 dash cayenne pepper (optional)
1 (15 ounce) can tomato sauce
4 cups small grained white rice, cooked for serving

Steps:

Heat a large skillet, over medium heat, and lightly saute onion and bell pepper in the oil about 2 to 3 minutes; add the corned beef and combine with the onion and peppers by breaking the beef up with a wooden spoon and stirring.
Flatten mixture evenly in the bottom of the pan, then pour the tomato sauce evenly over top; reduce heat, if needed, to prevent sauce bubbling out of the pan.
Season with salt and pepper and other seasonings as desired, to taste (DO NOT STIR).
Simmer, uncovered, over medium low heat, until liquid has mostly evaporated, about 15 minutes.
Place about 1 cup of rice on each of 4 serving dishes, then divide beef mixture into 4 and use a spatula to place each portion on top of the rice.

The surprise is the beer and it really makes the flavors pop for this dish. Its a cinch to make in the crockpot. I don't remember how I came across it, but its one I made for my dad every St Patty's day and he loved it. I hope you do too.

Ingredients

3-4 lb corned beef
1 pkg dry onion soup mix
1 can(s) beer, not lite
1 bunch cabbage head

Steps:

1. Place corned beef into your crockpot and sprinkle the dry onion soup over the beef.
2. Pour the beer over the beef and soup mix. You can add the additional flavor packet that comes with the meat or leave it out.
3. Turn crockpot on low and cook for 4-5 hours. The last hour I add the head of cabbage chunked up and place on top of the beef.
4. I add the cabbage the last hour to keep it crispy..if you like softer cabbage just add it after you pour the beer and let it cook with the beef. Serve and enjoy!
