One year, when St. Patrick's Day was coming near, I knew what would happen if I served plain cabbage again—the kids would all take one look and go "yuck"! So I decided to try this recipe. It's now become more or less a family tradition for us come every March 17. In fact, my husband (we're the parents of four and grandparents of five) likes it so much I fix it for him year-round. Friends enjoy it a great deal, too—it makes a great-looking platter!

GREAT glaze with the honey and mustard, and the sauce for the cabbage was equally as good! Family like it. Will definitely make again!

This briscuit along with Irish Soda Bread made a very good meal. I added 1/2 cup apple juice to the cooking liquid and added baby carrots along with the cabbage wedges to the cooking liquid. I have one question. Should I have placed the meat fat side up or down in the Dutch Oven? Thanks for your input.

Very tasty. The glaze is a great addition. I definitely won't be waiting until St. Patty's Day next year to make this.

we too eat corned beef year round...I buy 5 or 6 of them at St. Patrick's time(cheaper then), they freeze wonderfully, put it frozen in the crock pot and cook on medium all day long and dinner is ready come evening and oh the smell all day!
