Notes

  • The dark beer definitely boosts the flavor of this soup, adding another level of richness to it. If you don’t want to cook with alcohol, consider using a non-alcoholic beer instead or you can certainly just use beef broth but then add an extra amount in place of liquid lost from not using the beer. 
  • A typical corned beef and cabbage soup calls for all the usual veggies - cabbage, celery, carrots, onion, and potatoes. Other veggies that will withstand the cooking and simmering of soup can also be added. Don’t be shy with the veggies, even if you have picky eaters - the corned beef and flavors of the soup seriously help to offset any dislike of vegetables!
  • I love serving this chicken pot pie with homemade or canned biscuits but you could also enjoy it alongside crusty bread, pie crust crackers, or whatever else your heart desires!
  • If you want to use uncooked corned beef for this soup then cube the raw meat and add it to the soup. Just be aware of the fact that you may need some extra cooking time when using uncooked meat. 
  • If you forgot to prepare this soup at the beginning of the day and need your soup ready to serve soon, simply cook it on the stovetop in a large pan. You can follow my recipe directions but just cook the soup over medium heat for about 45 minutes. If you want a quick dinner, you can cook this on the stovetop in a large pan.  
  • If you want a thicker consistency to your soup, make up a slurry to mix into the soup until you have achieved the consistency you desire. Use gluten-free flour for any gluten sensitivities.
  • Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Freeze up to 3 months.
