Corned Beef in the Crock Pot

Corned Beef in the Crock Pot

Ingredients
 1) 1 (approximately) 3-pound corned beef brisket plus pickling spice packet (usually contained with the meat)
2) 5 whole cloves
3) 4 carrots
4) 3 red potatoes 
5) 1/2 head of cabbage


Directions
1) Cut carrots into 1 inch pieces
2) Cut potatoes into cubes
3) Cut cabbage into wedges
4) Place corned beef brisket, fat side up, into slow cooker
5) Sprinkle pickling spice and cloves over meat
6) Cover brisket with water (should be at least 1 inch over meat)
7) Cover and cook on low for 5 hours
8) Add carrots, potatoes and cabbage and cook on low for another 3 hours
NOTE: I add everything in the beginning because I cook things overnight and I don't mind my veggies really soft in this dish. 
9) Thinly slice the corned beef against the grain when done
10) Enjoy!!!
