Savory Corned Beef Brisket Ready in Under an Hour
  • Prep Time

  • Total Time
    1 hrs 10 mins

Ingredients

  • 1 brisket of corned beef weighing 3 pounds, accompanied by a flavorful spice packet
  • A tablespoon of rich brown sugar
  • Fresh water
  • Two teaspoons of aromatic pickling spice
  • Two teaspoons of garlic powder

Step 1

Prepare a container by filling it with water and mixing in brown sugar until it dissolves. Take the corned beef out of its packaging and rinse it thoroughly to remove any curing residue. Submerge the beef in the sweet water, ensuring it is fully covered, and keep the spice packet aside for later use. If needed, pour in more water to cover the meat completely and let it marinate for at least 8 hours or overnight for optimal flavor infusion.

Step 2

In a multi-functional pressure cooker like an Instant Pot®, combine 1 1/2 cups of water with the reserved spice packet and pickling spice. Insert a rack into the pot to elevate the meat during cooking.

Step 3

After the soaking period, take the beef out of the liquid and season both sides generously with garlic powder. Place the beef on the rack in the pressure cooker, making sure the fat side is facing up. If required, cut the beef in half to ensure it fits properly. Seal the pressure cooker with its lid securely and choose the high-pressure setting as per the manufacturer's guidelines. Set the timer for 50 minutes and allow some time, around 10 to 15 minutes, for the pressure to build up.

Step 4

Once the cooking time is up, perform a natural pressure release following the appliance's instructions, approximately 10 minutes. Transfer the cooked corned beef to a cutting board, cover it loosely with aluminum foil, and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing and serving to enhance its juiciness and tenderness.

Extra Tips & Suggestions

  1. 1. Begin by clearing out a generous space in your refrigerator to accommodate the corned beef brisket. Make sure to remove any items that may be taking up unnecessary space.
  2. 2. Use a large glass or ceramic container to store the corned beef brisket. This will help maintain its freshness and prevent any leakage that may occur from the packaging.
  3. 3. Consider marinating the brisket in a flavorful blend of spices and herbs before refrigerating. This will enhance the taste and ensure a mouthwatering meal later on.
