Irish Corned Beef and Cabbage

TIP:

Make sure to soak the pre-packaged corned beef briskets in cold water for 4 hours. They are extremely salty, and soaking them will pull the excess salt out of the meat.

TIP:

Don’t pour the seasoning packet into the broth or onto the meat. Instead, tie it up in a cheese cloth and let the flavors seep into the broth. This saves time later by not having to strain the broth to remove any peppercorns, or seasonings.

Instructions

Step 1
In a large bowl, add the corned beef and cover with 1-inch of cold water. Place the bowl in the refrigerator to soak for 4 hours, changing the water halfway through.  

Step 2
After 4 hours, remove the corned beef from the water. Place the beef stock, beer, and onion in the bottom of the pot.  

Step 3
Place the bottom layer of the Deluxe Reversible Rack in the lower position, then place in the pot. Place the corned beef on the rack.  

Step 4
Close the lid and move the slider to PRESSURE. Make sure the pressure release valve is in the SEAL position. The temperature will default to HIGH, which is the correct setting. Set time to 1 hour 15 minutes. Select START/STOP to begin cooking (the unit will build pressure for approx. 12 minutes before cooking begins).   

Step 5
When cooking is complete, naturally release the pressure for 10 minutes. When steam is released, the display will read Opn. Move slider to AIR FRY/STOVETOP to unlock the lid, then carefully open it. Remove the beef and set aside.

Step 6
Add remaining Level 1 ingredients to the broth in the pot. Close the lid and move the slider to PRESSURE. Make sure the pressure release valve is in the SEAL position. The temperature will default to HIGH, which is the correct setting. Set time to 3 minutes. Select START/STOP to begin cooking (the unit will build pressure for approx. 8 minutes before cooking begins). 

Step 7
While the vegetables are cooking, whisk together the glaze ingredients in a small bowl. Evenly brush the top of the corned beef with the prepared glaze. 

Step 8
When cooking is complete, remove the vegetables from the broth, transfer to a plate and cover to keep warm. 

Step 9
Place the Deluxe Reversible Rack in the lower position, then place back in the pot. Place the glazed corn beef on the rack. Close lid and move slider to STEAMCRISP. Select STEAM & CRISP,  set  temperature to 400°F, and set time to 9 minutes. Select START/STOP to begin cooking (PrE will display for approx. 7 minutes as the unit steams, then the timer will start counting down).
