Just came across this and wanted a corned beef sandwich and of course will now have to go and buy a piece. I cook the meat in the slow cooker and make a sauce at the end.
1 tin of pineapple pieces and put half the juice in the meat towards the end of cooking. Mix the rest of the tin with 1/2 cup vinegar, 1/4 ts pepper or just one good grind, 1/2 cup brown sugar, 2 ts mustard (any) and 2 TB raisins or sultanas. Stud a few cloves in the almost cooked meat and put in a casserole dish, pour over the mixed sauce ingredients and bake in moderate oven for about 30 minutes; baste a couple of times with syrup from bottom of dish. When ready you can put meat in thermo server and add a small amount of cornflour to sauce to thicken and then serve with meat.
Hope that is not too long winded but it tastes good and is also nice on a sandwich the next day if any left.
