AmyHuangSlow Cooker Corned Beef in Guiness Beer
July 2nd 2009 11:04
Well the Slow Cooked Corned Beef in Lemonade was a huge success and my confidence in Corned Beef has improved so this week I tried a variation on a slow cooker meal I found online. This one is Slow Cooked Corned Beef in Guiness.
This one is less sweet and way more heavily flavoured - it is a wholesome savoury corned beef. No white sauce this time - I wanted to eat it manlike (but still with a knife and fork
) - so I went for hot english mustard with it. It was yummy, but to be honest this one I think would have worked better with a thick strong gravy. It did make the best sandwich meat I have ever eaten and this one rocked with hot english mustard tomato and grilled cheese.
Ingredients:
2 cups water (or more to ensure the corned beef is covered)
1 cup chopped onion
1 cup chopped carrot
1 cup Guinness
2/3 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup tomato paste
1 Tbsp dried dill
2 cups beef stock
8 black peppercorns
3 whole cloves
1.3kg corned beef (got this one for $7- at Coles)
What to do with it all:
Combine all ingredients except corned beef in a 3.5Lr or larger slow cooker
Stir until well combined. Top with corned beef.
Cover and cook on low for eight hours or until beef is tender.
Prior to copmpleting this meal I was invited to a friends house for a yummy dinner of Asian Cooked BBQ pork and steamed veggies so I left the meat to cool in the juice overnight (I put in the fridge just before bed). Then for dinner the next day I removed from the pot and sliced it up. I then reheated in butter slowly in a pan and placed all the remainder of ingredients in a strainer. I then heated them up in a small pan and had a bed of warmed veg. I also steamed a spud and had with herbed butter oozing all over it.
YUM meal and the left overs made the best sandwhiches.
What I learnt - I wish I got to eat it fresh and not cooled in juices for 24hrs. I also learnt that the left over veg heated up were delish! And guiness and corned beef kick ass
Enjoy!!

MOst slow cooker meals are easy - once it's in the pot it's relax time for about 8hrs - haha
The sandwiches are divine
Helen - good luck with it. Will let you know how my Sunday dinner goes this week. I do like the slow cooker meals so might swap to your Malaysian Beef Curry - you can't beat that all day lingering curry cooking aroma.

Samaritan - loved or are you a veggo now hence the past tense? It tastes delish too.
Thanks for comments ladies - have a good one!

Actually that was a typo. I meant love. I still love corned beef. Although maybe that typo was my subconscious reminding me that I haven't had corned beef in a very long time. And so I've decided I am definitely printing out this recipe and trying it sometime soon.

I respect veggoes and love some veggo meals but could never live without meat. The love of my life won't commit to lover forever after because he is vegan and I am a carnivore - we keep in touch but he won't live his life with a meat eater. His loss - now I need to carve up some beef
I am about to cook a thai beef curry in a slow cooker so will have that recipe up in the next few days - it sounds so yummy.
Anyways - off to it.
Have a good one
