Just in time for St. Patrick's Day I wanted to share with everyone a recipe for Guinness Corned Beef. We paired this with a glass of green beer last year to celebrate St. Patrick's Day.

This recipe is really easy to make and turns out fantastic. John enjoyed this recipe since I picked up a 6 pack of Guinness draught beer and this Guinness recipe only called for 1 beer.

You can also make this in the crockpot/slow cooker. Check out our Crockpot Guinness Corned Beef Recipe for another fun way to make corned beef.

This recipe pairs great with red potatoes and carrots or you can serve it with mashed potatoes. We updated this recipe to have the red potatoes and carrots cooked with the corned beef.

You can leave off the carrots and potatoes if you are not a fan of them or if you want to use the Guinness corned beef for sandwiches only.

Ingredients needed

  • Corned beef brisket
  • Brown sugar
  • Guinness Stout Beer
  • Red Potatoes
  • Mini Carrots
  • Spices from the packet with the Corned Beef
  • Salt and Black Pepper
  • Low Sodium Beef Broth

Beef Broth - Add in beef broth until the brisket is nearly immersed. The top should still be visible.

You can easily double or triple the potatoes and carrots if you are serving more people. This is a great way to spread the meal out.

You can also add in cabbage, onion,

The Corned Beef cuts up greatly for leftovers! We love making corned beef sandwiches or mixing it with eggs in the morning.
