Guinness Beef Brisket

Gord made supper tonight.

He did Guinness Beef Brisket in the crockpot. Here's the recipe:

2 cups water
1 cup chopped onion
1 cup chopped carrot
1 cup chopped celery
1 cup Guinness Stout
2/3 cup packed brown sugar
1/4 cup tomato paste
1/4 cup chopped fresh or 1 tablespoon dried dill
1 (14 1/2-ounce) can beef broth
6 black peppercorns
2 whole cloves
1 (3-pound) cured corned beef brisket, trimmed

Trim the beef brisket to remove excess fat. Combine water through cloves in the slow cooker or crockpot. Stir the ingredients until well blended. Add the beef brisket. Cover and cook on HIGH 6 to 8 hours or until beef is tender. Remove beef; cut diagonally across grain into 1/4-inch slices. Discard broth mixture.

It was delicious ... very very tender!

He also made yummy corn fritters.
