Ingredients
Scale
- 2 pounds corned beef brisket
- 3–4 carrots (peeled and cut into large pieces)
- 1 onion (quartered)
- ¼ cup chopped fresh parsley
- 2 bay leaves
- 1 spice packet (included with the corned beef)
- 1 head green cabbage (quartered)
- 3 cups water
Instructions
- Place the corned beef brisket in the bottom of the Instant Pot.
- Add the baby carrots, onion, parsley, and bay leaves.
- Sprinkle the seasoning packet on top.
- Carefully pour in the water down the side (you don’t want to wash away all of the seasoning and flavor).
- Place the lid on top of the pressure cooker, move the venting position to SEALING, and press the PRESSURE COOK button. Set timer for 90 minutes.
- You can let the high pressure do a natural release (it should take 15-20 minutes). Remove the lid.
- Add the cabbage wedges in with the food in the Instant Pot and place the lid back on top.
- Press the PRESSURE COOK button and set the timer for 3 minutes.
- When the timer is done, do a quick release of the pressure.
- Remove the lid, remove the bay leaf, and pull out the beef brisket.
- Slice the brisket against the grain (it should be fork tender) and serve with carrots, onion, and cabbage on the side.
Notes
- Let the natural pressure release for a more tender brisket.
- Adjust the number of carrots or cabbage according to preference.
