CARAMELIZED CORNED BEEF

Caramelized Corned Beef image

If you are tired of flavorless boiled corned beef, try cooking it in the oven. The key to this recipe is melting the fat and caramelizing the meat in the oven. As long as you are dragging out the slow cooker, you may want to cook an extra corned beef and potatoes to use for a second meal or corned beef hash.

Ingredients

1 (3 pound) flat-cut corned beef
1 (32 ounce) carton beef stock
water as needed
5 large red potatoes, quartered
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 small head red cabbage, cut into 2-inch wedges

Steps:

Place corned beef in a slow cooker. Pour beef stock over corned beef and add enough water to raise liquid to within 2 inches of top.
