I'm doing the traditional corned beef and cabbage. Corned beef, potatoes, carrots, onions and cabbage. In the crockpot, the corned beef, carrots, onions and potatoes along with the seasoning will go in and covered with water and some beer. Slow cooked for about 4 to 5 hours. Peel outer leafs of cabbage, cut stem and quarter the head. Pull apart and place in crockpot with for around 30-40 minutes of the final hour of cooking.
Please share if you are doing this or anything different including deserts and beverages.
Happy St. Patty's Day!! 🍀🍀

I do similar (although not this year as the wife had it today while visiting family) but I use Flat cut and cook for 2 hours on high then 7 hours on low. I also do not put the cabbage in the crockpot but cook it separately to give more space for the potatoes (red peeled) and carrots.
A little Jameson Black Barrel....
FWIW - I use a crockpot and/or Air fryer for 80%+ of my cooking. Air fried chicken is so much better than grilled in terms of moisture and most vegetables, fries etc. are way better than boiled or oven roasted.
Me and the lady friend will be out celebrating tomorrow drinking green beer and sleeping in on Monday since we are both off of work
I like @ghostofuga1's thinking, @Tdub0199 and @Kasey as well. When I was younger I would paint Buckhead green, kiss my girl, and make some memories. At this point I'll probably have an Irish Whiskey at home and watch the March Madness brackets released. Happy St. Patrick's Day to Dawg Nation members everywhere.
Also, since the DN site has (at least temporarily) disabled @tfk_fanboy's whiskey thread, I thought I would post this article, even if it's a little late for St. Patrick's Day.
Dawg Nation never rests. Can you drink on the job? If so, can I have an application? 😁
I'm reminded of an episode of Family Guy where Peter took his son to a Irish heritage Museum. There was a diorama of traditional Irish life where a husband is standing at a bar, his wife walks up yelling at him, he drains his mug of beer, then hits his wife, knocking her backwards, she comes back and he hits her again. In another diorama a woman is kneeling and praying, then her legs fly up and a baby shoots out. If that ain't Irish I'll kiss your blarney arse.
I'm with you @AnotherDawg. I used to raise hell in my younger days as an Irish descendant, just a little too beat up and I'll turn 60 on Tuesday. Stay home with the bride and see if Kisner can pull something off at the Players!
Cannot quote the OP, so @ghostofuga1 , how traditional is your recipe - the veggies? I am used to cabbage and potatoes but not carrots nor onions. I could see carrots (color of beef, flavor fairly subtle), but onions was the big surprise. Response? FYI I like the red skin potatoes if handy.
The Irish can be so sensitive. Why flag my historically valid post ? Come on, Saint Patty's Day is about a Catholic Saint and it's celebrated by getting piss drunk, lighten up.
@FirePlugDawg I am not sure if it's truly traditional, but I got this recipe off the interweb from a lady that posted it and stated that it was her Irish grandmother's recipe. It's pretty much the same recipe I've always used for my Beef Roast minus the water, beer and cabbage. I always use red or new potatoes in that too.
@Catfish Welcome to Club 60! I joined in January......
It's also National Corned Beef And Cabbage Day.
to “corn” something is simply to preserve it in a salty brine (the term corn refers to the coarse grains of salt used for curing).
Corned beef is a salt-cured beef product. In the traditional Irish Corned Beef and Cabbage recipes, salt pork or bacon joint was used instead of corned beef. Sometime in the mid-1800s when the Irish immigrated to America, they found that Jewish corned beef was very similar in texture to bacon joint (pork). It was then that corned beef was used as a replacement for the bacon when preparing corned beef and cabbage meals. Soon after, Irish-Americans began having Corned Beef and Cabbage on St. Patrick’s Day.
I always thought corned beef and cabbage is a tradition The Irish brought to New Year's Day.
