Corned Beef: Crock Pot or Oven Baked?

[Anonymous]

I always just set up everything in the crock pot and check back at the end of the day. Always delish. I just saw a recipe that had rave reviews (if they can be believed) where the corned beef was loosely packed in foil and baked in the oven for 2 hours (with cloves, honey mustard and brown sugar). Wondering if I should vary from my successful crock pot method. How do you make your corned beef for St. Patrick's Day?

I always have high hopes for the crockpot but it can be really hit or miss - as in delicious corned beef one year and dry overcooked meat the next. Can you post your oven recipe? I might try it.

I boil mine then bake it with a glaze. It's always a winner.

Baked in the oven is nice if you are home, or can use a timer. The water needs to cover the corned beef or use an oven bag.

Same has happened to me. I think I will try the oven this year.

yes, can someone please post a link to a recipe? I always take the easy way out on St. Patty's Day and make Rachel Ray's Shepherds Pie, but I would like to do corned beef!

We have had two years of failed Crock Pot corned beef. Two different crock pots/recipes. It came out tough both times. My mom always used the oven and hers always turned out well

I'm inspired, I've never made corned beef before but will try this year. I seem to remember my mother boiling it in water and a bottle of Guinness. Does this sound familiar to anyone? Any recipes?

Dutch oven! Mine is perfect every time. I LOVE corned beef and wish it was available year round.

Just buy a brisket and corn it yourself. It's easy (though it takes a while).

How does one corn a brisket?
