Easy Corned Beef and Cabbage

If you would like to make a delicious St. Patrick’s Day dinner, but you don’t have all afternoon to let your corned beef cook on the stovetop, the Instant Pot will come to your rescue.

In less than 2 hours, you can have your dinner on the table that’s worthy of feeding Saint Patrick!

Cooking Under Pressure

The nice thing about the Instant Pot is that when you use the pressure cook option, you can create delicious meals in about half the time it would take to cook a meal on your stovetop or in your oven.

Plus, your dish will come out tender and tasty, as you will find to be the case with this Corned Beef and Cabbage meal.

Remember to Cut Against the Grain

And don’t forget, no matter how you cook your Corned Beef, when you go to slice it, be sure to cut “against the grain” to get those beautiful, picture-perfect slices.

If you are confused about this technique, I explain how to do this and demonstrate it in detail in this video.

Happy St. Patrick’s Day!

So even if you’re short on time, thanks to the Instant Pot, you can enjoy a traditional Irish American recipe to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day in style.

Instant Pot Corned Beef and Cabbage

You can make this Instant Pot Corned Beef and Cabbage recipe in half the time as the stovetop version.
Prep Time5 mins
Cook Time1 hr 35 mins
Total Time1 hr 40 mins
Course: Main Course
Cuisine: Americana
Keyword: Corned Beef, Corned Beef and Cabbage, Instant Pot Corned Beef and Cabbage
Servings: 4 servings
Author: Mary’s Nest

Ingredients

  • 5 pound Flat cut corned beef brisket
  • 2 Bay leaves
  • 1 tablespoon Whole black peppercorns
  • 2 pounds Carrots, peeled and cut into thirds
  • 2 pounds Red skinned baby potatoes If potatoes are large, quarter them
  • 1 large Green cabbage, quartered with core intact
  • Water

Instructions

  • Place your corned beef brisket, fat side up, into the Instant Pot liner. If using the Instant Pot rack, place your corned beef brisket onto the rack and then lower the rack into your Instant Pot liner.
  • Sprinkle the seasoning packet (that came with corned beef brisket) on top of the meat.
  • Add bay leaves and peppercorns into the Instant Pot liner.
  • Fill Instant Pot liner with water to cover the corned beef brisket but do not fill the liner past the 2/3 mark (liner is marked PC Max 2/3). It is okay if the top of the corned beef brisket is not covered with water.
  • Put the lid on your Instant Pot, lock the lid into place, turn the vent to "sealing". On the panel of the Instant Pot, press the Instant Pot "Pressure Cook", "Manual" , or "Meat/Stew" button, set the temperature to HIGH, and set the cook time for 90 minutes.
  • After 90 minutes, do a "quick" release of the steam pressure. Be careful when doing this as the steam will release quite forcefully. (See the video.)
  • Once the pressure has returned to normal, remove the Instant Pot lid. Lift the rack with the cooked corned beef brisket and transfer it to a cutting board to rest. Tent the cooked meat with aluminum foil to keep it warm. (If not using the rack, remove corned beef brisket carefully using two spatulas.)
  • Carefully add carrots, potatoes, and cabbage to the Instant Pot liner. Be careful as you do this because the liquid in the Instant Pot will be very hot.
  • Once all the vegetables are in the Instant Pot liner, replace the lid on to the Instant Pot and set the vent to "sealing". On the panel of the Instant Pot, press the Instant Pot "Pressure Cook" or "Manual" button, then set the temperature to HIGH, and set the cook time for 5 minutes.
  • After 5 minutes, do a "quick" release of the steam pressure. Be careful when doing this as the steam will release quite forcefully. (See the video.)
  • Slice the corned beef brisket and transfer the slices to a large serving platter. Remove the carrots, potatoes, and cabbage from the Instant Pot liner, and add your cooked vegetables to the serving platter along with the corned beef brisket. Enjoy!
