Question by Benjamin L: How long should I cook a corned beef brisket in a crock pot? Suggestions?
I am making corned beef & cabbage tonight and I was wondering how long should I cook it in a crock pot? Sounds silly, but I need to know. 
Should it be cooked on a low heat, high heat?

ok now i’m gonna have to post a ?? on corn beef and cabbage recipe. sounds yummy!! but a brisket in general should be set on low for about 6-8 hours. it will just melt in your mouth!
Until it’s cooked!
Sounds silly but do you know how many times I have to give this answer?
Check your doneness temperatures and depending on how well or rare you want your brisket cooked there’s your answer. When it hit’s that temp you’re done.
Low heat for 6 hours
Cook on HIGH for 4 to 5 hours or on LOW for 8 to 10 hours.
4-5 hours on high
7-8 hours on low
