Classic Corned Beef and Cabbage

If you’re looking for a classic corned beef and cabbage recipe to try, this is a really good one. ♡

It’s everything you want this traditional Irish dish to be — tender, sliceable brisket simmered in warm spices and stout, buttery potatoes and carrots that soak up all the savory broth, and cabbage that’s soft (without getting mushy!). I like a lot of flavor in my corned beef and cabbage, and this recipe hits the spot every time!
