Notes
Substitute beef broth or water for the beer.
Rinsing the brisket is optional but gives it a milder flavor and helps reduce sodium. You can pat it dry or use as is.
I keep the fat cap on for flavor and juiciness. You can easily remove it after cooking or slice it off when serving.
Cook times may vary with different slow cookers. Corned beef is tender and easy to slice at around 190 degrees F.
