About

Beloved throughout the world and especially in Ireland and England, Classic Corned Beef & Cabbage is rustic home-cooking at its finest! The corned beef is boldly beefy and wonderfully spiced, as it's cooked to tenderness in a homemade beef broth. Fluffy potatoes, sweet cabbage, and bright carrots are also cooked in the broth, so everything is infused with the rich, meaty flavor. Classic Corned Beef & Cabbage is comforting and nostalgic, and you'll be having fond memories of it for long after you eat it!
