★★★★

Beef, Irish, Pressure Cooker

Ingredients

2-3 pound Corned Beef Brisket

1 medium Yellow Onion, peeled and cut into wedges

3 Garlic Cloves, peeled and chopped

2 cups Dark Ale and/or beef broth

Seasoning Packet that comes with the corned beef

3 Potatoes, peeled and cubed into 1-inch cubes

2 large Carrots , peeled and cut into 1 ½-inch lengths

3 stalks celery, cut into 1-inch lengths

Directions

Insert the rack into the Instant Pot. Add the onion and garlic to the Instant Pot, distributing it evenly on the bottom.

Pour the beer/broth into the Instant Pot.

Remove the Corned Beef Brisket from the package, reserve the spice packet and rinse the meat thoroughly. Place it fat-side down on the rack.

Sprinkle the seasonings evenly on top of the brisket and around it in the pot.

Add the lid to the Instant Pot, select MANUAL High Pressure (default pressure setting) and 90 minutes.

When done, do a QUICK RELEASE of the pressure, remove the brisket, brush the seasoning from the top of the brisket (more difficult to remove when it has cooled) and allow to rest.

Add the potatoes (on the bottom) and carrots (on top of the potatoes) to the Instant Pot. Seal and select MANUAL for 3 minutes on High Pressure. When done do a QUICK RELEASE and remove vegetables with a slotted spoon.

Slice the Corned Beef across the grain and serve on a platter with the vegetables. The cooking juices may be spooned over the meat to keep it moist.
