Boom! Done! Your fall-apart tender corned beef is ready to serve. Set slices onto a bed of your favorite mashed potatoes, then top with the Guinness gravy. Serve the caramelized cabbage on the side. You will LOVE this recipe. Don’t get me wrong! There is absolutely NOTHING wrong with traditional corned beef and cabbage, but every now and then, we like something different. Know what I mean? We’re using all the same ingredients, with a few more tossed in - you know, chili peppers! Habanero! Jalapeno! The good stuff - along with Guinness Beer. Cooking the corned beef low and slow in Guinness beer infuses the beef with immense flavor and tenderness, and it will also form your freakishly delicious gravy for your topping. OH. MY. GOODNESS. DANG. Guinness Gravy. Bust out your Dutch Oven for this recipe. If you don’t have one, any oven safe pot will do, as long as it is large enough to hold the ingredients. You can also make this in your slow cooker or crock pot, but it takes 8-10 hours for that method, whereas this was ready in 4 hours, and it was finger shredding tender. It pulls right apart with your fingers, so be careful cutting it. Melts in your mouth. Let’s get cooking! If you try this recipe, please let us know!
