Recipe View 15 mins Once cooked, remove the corned beef from the slow cooker and let it rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful meat. (15 minutes)

Recipe View 5 mins Slice the corned beef thinly against the grain to maximize tenderness. Serve hot with the cooked potatoes, cabbage, onions, and carrots, spooning some of the flavorful cooking liquid over the meat and vegetables. (5 minutes)

For an even richer flavor, consider searing the corned beef briskets in a hot pan before adding them to the slow cooker. This will add a beautiful crust and enhance the overall depth of flavor.
If you prefer a sweeter flavor profile, add 1/4 cup of maple syrup to the apple juice mixture.
To prevent the vegetables from becoming too soft, add them to the slow cooker about halfway through the cooking time if cooking on High, or during the last 2-3 hours if cooking on Low.
Leftovers are fantastic! Use leftover corned beef in Reuben sandwiches, corned beef hash, or as a topping for salads.

    I was a bit skeptical about the apple juice, but it turned out amazing! The corned beef was so tender and flavorful. I'll definitely be making this again next St. Patrick's Day.

    Easy to follow and the results were fantastic. I cooked it on low for 9 hours and the corned beef was fall-apart tender. Highly recommend!
