- 4 to 6 medium potatoes, halved (Yukon gold or red)
- 3 to 5 carrots, cut into big chunks
- 1 onion, quartered (optional)
- 1 small head of cabbage, cut into wedges

Instructions
- Place the corned beef in the slow cooker.
- Sprinkle the spice packet over it.
- Add enough liquid to come up about one third to halfway up the meat.

Notes
Rinse corned beef if salt-sensitive and cook fat side up for better basting. Let meat rest before slicing to keep juices in.
