Corned Beef and Cabbage Recipe (2024)

I’ve tried a ton on online recipes and this one is one of the best. I followed the recipe but made a change on the cabbage. I added dill seed and celery seed. I can’t wait to have my Irish friends over to try this. It’s amazing

BEST CORNED BEEF RECIPE!!! Inexpensive corned beef turns out to be tender and melt in your mouth! Now we have it several times a year!! Thank you Cooking LIte and My Recipes!

The best thing about this recipe is the horseradish and bread crumb topping! I use Italian Seasoned bread crumb and it is fantastic! This will be our 10th year making this and it is a hit each year!

I've been making this recipe for St. Patrick's Day ever since my sister-in-law made it for us in 2003. Each component has its own special flavor -- the mustard and horseradish crust on the corned beef, the lemon in the boiled potatoes, and the caraway in the cabbage. I don't change a thing.

I use this recipe every year to make corned beef for St. Patrick's Day. It is a good, solid recipe. The breadcrumb topping is okay, but not necessary. I always save the cooking broth at the end (after staining) and freeze it to use as my stock when making split pea soup - it really pumps up the flavor of the soup.

The corned beef was very good but I don't think the breadcrumb horseradish topping did any thing for the dish. I prefer a horseradish sauce and I use non-fat yogurt with the horseradish, and a little light mayo. I would make it again, but exclude the breadcrumb topping.

Every Year I make corn beef and cabbage to honor St Patty's day. I tried this recipe and another recipe for a slow cooker. My family really enjoyed this recipe. It was really gourmet, each component of the recipe had such intrigue flavors but complimented each other. This is a family keeper.

Great recipe. I was worried about the amount of horseradish in the breadcrumbs, but it was delicious and not too spicy. Will definitely make this every year. Also it made the whole house smell wonderful while cooking.

I made this last year, and it was hands down the best I'd ever made. I'm not an expert, but I had a large dinner party and everyone agreed and there wasn't a scrap leftover

Cooking the veg separately is definitely the way to go. Adding lemon zest to the potatoes is an especially nice touch, really highlighting the overall flavors of the dish. I did cut back on the horseradish and was still pleased with the flavor of the crust. My DH really liked the "new texture" of broiling the meat as well. Overall, this is a great recipe, easily adaptable to your own tastes.

I make this every year for my 15yr old son, he loves it! Best version ever for corned beef and cabbage. I will never make it any other way. You can make it in the crockpot and it will come out just as good.

I made the FAB dinner last night for St Pat's Day. And boy did I WOW my Texas Cowboy newlywed husband! He claimed it was the Best he had EVER eaten (and I know that he has eaten alot of corned beef!)!!! It was the first time I had ever made corned beef. The only different things that I did, was use a 12oz bottle of lager then added the water to make 16 cups; and I cut the cabbage in 6-8 large wedges. But cooked it all the same that you called for and didn't vary anymore of the ingredients!. We are still talking about it today. My cowboy claimed "This recipe is a Keeper".

I wasn't nearly as thrilled as everyone else with this recipe. First, the potatoes really lacked flavor. Cooked for twenty minutes, they were ready to be mashed. The horseradish crust for the corned beef is a nice touch. I may try it on a rib roast. Quite frankly, I thought the cabbage was the best part of this meal. A little bit too much caraway for me, but acceptable. Overall, though, I've had much better corned beef and was able to cook the dinner in one pot, as opposed to the multiple pots and steps required in this recipe. Probably not worth the effort of a repeat attempt.

Fantastic & 5 stars all the way! I'll never make this dish any other way! My husband drooled... The corned beef could be cut with your fork it was so tender. Just fabulous!!!

My husband said it was the best corned beef he ever had and he really enjoyed the potatoes also. I don't really care for corned beef and cabbage but this was delicious. The topping really makes the dish and I don't usually like horseradish either.

I've made this every year for 5 years now, it's delicious!

St Pats Day 2011. The horserasish crust and dijion mustard were excellent. I cooked the beef on low in the crock pot all day and omitted the pickling spice since we dont care for it. Even the potatoes were very good, loved the lemony taste.

The Best Corned Beef recipe I have ever tried. I usually just make Corned Beef and cabbage for St. Patrick's day as a tradition b/c my family doesn't really like it but this time was different - everyone LOVED it!!!!!!

I enjoyed this recipe but was left with the feeling like a better corned beef dinner is out there. The potato portion is pointless. I hate boiling potatoes (when roasting is so much tastier w/ better texture) except when mashing. These potatoes were bland though i added salt and dill (instead of parsley which i feel is recently extremely overrated.) I love corned beef, cabbage, dijon, and horseradish. Adding the dijon and horseradish seemed like overkill. Too many cooks in the kitchen, the cooks being strong flavors. I added extra pickling spice to the corned beef and left out the caraway seeds in the cabbage. Great recipe for both, with small variations. Very easy. In summary, these the combination of the cabbage and corned beef is a classic bc the flavors are strong with little added flavor being necessary. Keep it classic.

The BEST Corn Beef recipe I have ever used. the crust makes this extra special. I also cooked some carrots for a few minutes in the broth and then mixed them with the potatoes for a final finish. Make the Boston Brown Bread and you will have a perfect Irish Dinner!

My husband made this dinner (to the recipe with no revisions) for me last week. It was absolutely outstanding and delicious. The horseradish crust really set off the flavors. We usually make our own corned beef, but even with store bought it was a favorite meal. Also loved the lemon flavor to the potatoes, and the cabbage was wonderful.

I made this last night for St. Patrick's Day 2009 for my family of five (three daughters, 9, 6, and 4) and my husband. My husband, myself and my 4 year old really liked the corned beef. The actual cooking of the beef was really easy once the cooking liquid was prepared. I followed the recipe as it is written since this was the first time I used it. Contrary to other reviewers, I didn't think the Horseradish Crust was all that great. In fact, when I make it again, I'll leave it off and just serve prepared horseradish on the side, as I prefer more of a kick than the crust provided. Also, my children balked at the crust, but overall liked the meat. Everyone liked the potatoes, though they seemed a bit dry, so I added about a tablespoon more butter in the end. The cabbage was very nice and light. Overall a very good recipe.

I have to agree with the other reviewers: The horseradish crust makes this dish. I seriously had my doubts, but everyone loved it. It was not at all overpowering. The only thing I did differently was to cook it in the crockpot for 10 hours instead of on the stovetop. Delish!

We made this for St. Pat's Day 2009 - it was excellent! The topping is a real hit. I also added 2 cans of Guiness to the water and boiled the potatoes and vegetables in the same pot. Next time I plan to cut the cabbage in bigger pieces (personal choice) I will make this again. It's great with brown bread!
