How about a traditional Corned Beef and Cabbage dinner...

4 to 6 lbs. brisket of beef
1 qt. beer or ale
6 peppercorns
2 bay leaves
1/2 tsp. thyme
Peeled sm. white potatoes
Sm. onions
Carrots
Wedges of green cabbage

Place the corned beef brrisket in a deep pot. Add beer and enough cold water to cover. Add pepporcorns, bay leaves, and thyme. Simmer beef over a low heat for 4 hours or longer until meat is very tender. During last 30 minutes of cooking time, add vegetables. Continue cooking until vegetables are done. I like my vegetables with a little crunch left to them in the center.
