Ingredients
Scale
- 2 pounds corned beef, cut into bite-sized pieces
- 4 large potatoes, chopped into large chunks
- 2 celery stalks, chopped
- 1 white onion, chopped
- 16 oz bag baby carrots
- ½ head of cabbage, cut into small wedges
- 3 cups beef broth
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 2 tablespoons pickling spice
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon paprika

Instructions
- Prepare the slow cooker: Place the corned beef, potatoes, celery, onion, carrots, and cabbage into the slow cooker.
- Mix the broth: In a medium bowl, whisk together the beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, pickling spice, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Pour this mixture evenly over the meat and vegetables.
- Cook: Cover and cook on low for 8–10 hours or on high for 5–6 hours, until the meat is tender and the vegetables are fully cooked.
- Optional thickening: If you prefer a thicker broth, mix the cornstarch with a little cold water to make a slurry, then stir it into the slow cooker during the last 30 minutes of cooking.
- Finish and serve: Adjust seasoning with extra salt and pepper to taste. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and serve warm.
