Quick Pressure Cooker Corned Beef

Directions

• Ingredient Prep – Gather a 2.5-pound corned beef brisket, garlic powder, onion powder, and beer. Having all ingredients ready simplifies the cooking process. (Approx. 5 minutes)
• Seasoning Setup – Position the brisket fat-side up on a rack inside your electric pressure cooker. Sprinkle with measured amounts of garlic and onion powders evenly to enhance the flavors. (Approx. 2 minutes)
• Adding Liquid – Pour 3/4 of a 12 ounce bottle of beer around the brisket. The beer introduces subtle malt tones and helps tenderize the beef during cooking. (Approx. 2 minutes)
• Cooking Time – Secure the pressure cooker lid. Set it to the “Meat/Stew” setting for 90 minutes, allowing time for pressure to build. This method drastically reduces cooking time while preserving tenderness. (Set for 90 minutes)
• Pressure Release – After cooking, allow pressure to release naturally, enhancing meat tenderness and flavors. This could take about 10 minutes. (Approx. 10 minutes)
• Cutting and Serving – Open the cooker post-pressure release, remove brisket, and slice across the grain for best texture using an electric knife. Serve warm. (Approx. 5 minutes)
