Corned beef & Cabbage

Does anyone have any good receipes for Corned Beef & Cabbage. Maybe in the crock pot.

Re: Corned beef & Cabbage

My best recipe for corned beef entails tossing it in the garbage & getting some better food. I'll ask my corned beef loving mom for you.

Just made it the other day....
I cut 5 red potatoes in half and put them in the bottom with a couple of cabbage wedges (I only bought one cabbage) poured a can of beer and 1/2 cup of malt vinegar in the pot . Laid the corned beef on top with a couple more cabbages and cooked it for 10 hours on low.
