Anyone have any recommendations for delicious corned beef and cabbage?

Thanks.

I always bought Farmland brand from Piggly Wiggly. I would rinse off most of the red bloody gunk (sorry I didn't know what else to call it) and put the meat in a slow cooker with a little water at the bottom. I never used the seasoning pack as there was more than enough flavor in the meat. It is a taste preference as I don't like those spices. About 1/2 way through the cooking process I would layer potatoes and cabbage on top of the corned beef. Adding some salt to that. As the potatoes and cabbage were cooking I would baste some of the juices over them.

Sorry, but THIS St. Patrick's Day, we are doing it at the Wilderness in the Dells.

Next wee, hmmmm, Oh Dennis & Shamrock Pub will work out just fine.
