3 to 4 lb corned beef
2 large onions, quartered
6 to 8 medium carrots
1 small cabbage, quartered, leave core in
14.9 oz guinnes beer
water to almost cover the beef
1 tsp peppercorns
1/2 tsp mustard seeds
2 Tbsp vinegar
2 medium bay leaves
1 tsp minced garlic
1/4 tsp crushed red pepper
salt and pepper to taste, use your judgement on this one
potatoes if desired, using whole baby potatoes works well here.

Steps:

1. Using a disposable liner in your slow cooker will make cleanup easier, not necessary, but Ii hate cleanups.
2. Put your carrots in the bottom of the slow cooker, and then the beef on top.
3. Tuck the onions in around the sides.
4. Pour the beer over all, then enough water to almost cover the beef.
5. Sprinkle the seasonings over all. Reserve the potatoes and carrots for later.
6. Cook on low for 4 to 6 hours. The last 1 1/2 hours add the potatoes and cabbage, this makes them so they are not overcooked.
