You will not believe how easy this Instant Pot Corned Beef is to make and how delicious it tastes! The entire meal including corned beef, cabbage, carrots, and potatoes can be made with minimal effort and time in your pressure cooker!
If you are the owner of a pressure cooker, you have got to try cooking your corned beef in it this St. Patrick’s Day…or really any day! I was actually talking to a few friends over the weekend that told me they make corned beef all year because their families really like it…what a novel idea! Corned Beef all year long, who would’ve thought it?! The Instant Pot makes it extremely easy to cook this typically tough cut of beef quickly and it cuts out a good hour and half if you planned on speed cooking it in your crock pot on high which makes it another winner in my Instant Recipes archive!
If you liked my Crockpot Corned Beef recipe, you will really like this one too! And unlike the crockpot, where I felt the veggies turned to mush so I only ever made just the corned beef in it, the Instant Pot is great for steaming them just right! Also, you can find my favorite coleslaw recipe with my crockpot corned beef recipe so make sure you check that out if you are looking for a good one to use on sandwiches! (affiliate links present)
To make this corned beef you will need and Instant Pot or other pressure cooker. Make sure to follow the directions of your pressure cooker if you are not using an IP! You will also need a steam rack. Like I have mentioned before, I alway use my steamer basket because I like how it holds everything in place inside the insert. You will also need a good pair of tongs to pull out the corned beef and veggies!

This is another one of my favorite kinds of recipes, because it is literally a chop and drop recipe! Drop in that corned beef and sprinkle the seasoning packet over it. Then pour a can of beef broth or beer over top. Lock the lid, close the steam valve, and cook away!
When the corned beef is done, pull it out (leaving the liquid in the Instant Pot) and add in your chopped veggies! Lock the lid, close the steam valve and cook away again!
After 7 minutes all those veggies are nicely steamed!!!
And you will be eating this in no time at all!!
