PRESSURE COOKER BEEF BRISKET



Pressure Cooker Beef Brisket image

This is my go-to recipe for brisket. I usually use bison brisket, but beef brisket works as well. This recipe is easy to prepare and using the pressure cooker greatly reduces cooking time as compared to other methods. The brisket comes out moist, tender, and flavorful, and the gravy is also excellent. I have used this recipe for briskets as large as 6 pounds with equal success, but increased the cook time to 55 minutes. I use an electric pressure cooker for this recipe, but it can also be made in a pressure cooker on the stove. The rub step can be skipped.

Time 6h9m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 (3 pound) beef brisket, trimmed of excess fat
¼ cup beef rub
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 yellow onions, sliced
5 large cloves garlic, sliced
1 teaspoon salt
½ cup beef broth
½ cup dry red wine
¼ cup ketchup
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon dried thyme leaves
1 teaspoon dried rosemary
¼ cup cornstarch
¼ cup cold water

Steps:

  • Coat beef brisket with beef rub, rubbing it into both sides. Place brisket in a large resealable plastic bag; refrigerate 4 hours to overnight.
  • Turn on a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®) and select the highest Saute function. Heat oil and lower the brisket into the pot using tongs, fatty side facing down. Cook until bottom is a rich, dark brown, about 6 minutes. Turn and sear until the other side is browned, about 6 minutes more. Transfer brisket to a plate.
  • Adjust pressure cooker to the medium Saute setting. Add onions, garlic, and salt. Cook, stirring frequently, until onions are soft and beginning to brown, about 10 minutes. Scrape the bottom of the pot as you stir the onions to release the browned bits from the bottom.
  • Stir broth, wine, ketchup, paprika, thyme, and rosemary into the sauteed onion mixture. Lower the seared brisket back into the pressure cooker, fatty side up. Close and lock the lid; be sure pressure valve is set to the sealed position. Select high pressure according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 50 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.
  • Release pressure using the natural-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, about 10 minutes. Release any remaining pressure carefully, about 5 minutes. Unlock and remove lid. Transfer brisket to a plate or carving board.
  • Strain the cooking liquid into a fat separator, collecting the cooked onions and garlic in the strainer. Return the drained onions and garlic to the pressure cooker. Pour the cooking liquid back into the pot, discarding the fat that is left behind. Blend cooking liquid, onions, and garlic into a thick gravy using an immersion blender.
  • Turn the Saute setting on medium. Mix cold water and cornstarch together in a bowl; pour into the pressure cooker. Cook, stirring frequently, until gravy has thickened, 6 to 8 minutes.
  • Slice the brisket against in the grain into 1/4-inch slices. Pour gravy over and serve hot.

CORNED BEEF BRISKET W/ VEGGIES & HORSERADISH-PRESSURE COOKER



Corned Beef Brisket W/ Veggies & Horseradish-Pressure Cooker image

My favorite corned beef with cabbage recipe, prepared in an 6-quart or 8-quart pressure cooker. I applaud Toula Patsalis, "The Pressure Cooker Cookbook", for this gem, to which I have added the pickling spices that usually come with a corned beef brisket. Try the sauce at least once to see if it heightens your enjoyment of this classic dish; it is also good with roast beef or roast pork. I cook the brisket a day ahead so 1) it can be served on a weeknight after work, 2) the fat will congeal on the liquid for easy removal, and 3) haven't you noticed that so many things taste better on the second day! By the way, did you know that Corned Beef & Cabbage originated in the Boston, Mass. area, not Ireland, because beef was too expensive in Ireland? Of course, the Irish soon adopted this variation from their Irish-American relatives. 3/13/14: made this in my 6-quart electric p.c. Couldn't fit everything in for the 2nd round, so cooked the vegetables in the juice under pressure, then removed the cabbage (to a casserole dish in a 200°F oven) and warmed up the corned beef with everything else on the browning setting. I chopped an extra green onion top for garnishing. "Now THIS is how corned beef and cabbage should taste!" declared DH.

PRESSURE COOKER BEEF BRISKET ROAST RECIPE - (4.4/5)



Pressure Cooker Beef Brisket Roast Recipe - (4.4/5) image

Provided by Katecooks

Number Of Ingredients 9

2-3 pounds brisket
1 cup beef stock
2 cups water
1 tablespoon garlic, minced
1 paxket onion soup mix
1 bay leaf
1 sprig fresh thyme or 1 teaspoon dried
2 tablespoons corn starch
Salt and pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Add brisket to cooker and cover with remaining ingredients, except corn starch Lock lid and set on high and cook for 60 min Let pressure release naturally for 10 min before quick release Remove brisket and set aside to rest under tin foil. Thicken gravy with corn starch mixed into 2 tablespoons of water and slowly add to simmering juices, stirring constantly until thick. Carve brisket thin, against the meat's grain and serve smothered in gravy.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of beef: Brisket is a large, tough cut of meat that benefits from the long, slow cooking time that pressure cooking provides. Look for a brisket that is well-marbled with fat, as this will help keep the meat moist and tender during cooking.
  • Trim the brisket: Before cooking, trim away any excess fat from the brisket. This will help the meat cook more evenly and prevent it from becoming greasy.
  • Season the brisket well: Brisket is a relatively bland cut of meat, so it is important to season it well before cooking. Use a rub made with your favorite spices, herbs, and seasonings. You can also add some liquid smoke to the rub for extra flavor.
  • Sear the brisket before cooking: Searing the brisket before cooking helps to develop its flavor and color. Heat a large pot or skillet over medium-high heat and sear the brisket on all sides until it is browned.
  • Add liquid to the pressure cooker: When cooking brisket in a pressure cooker, it is important to add enough liquid to cover the meat. This will help to prevent the brisket from drying out and will also create a flavorful cooking liquid.
  • Cook the brisket on high pressure for 60-75 minutes: The cooking time for brisket in a pressure cooker will vary depending on the size and thickness of the brisket. As a general rule, cook the brisket on high pressure for 60-75 minutes for a 3-4 pound brisket.
  • Let the brisket rest before serving: After cooking, let the brisket rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing and serving. This will help the juices redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful brisket.

Conclusion:

Pressure cooking is a great way to cook brisket because it allows you to achieve tender, flavorful results in a fraction of the time it would take to cook the brisket in a traditional oven. By following these tips, you can ensure that your pressure cooker brisket turns out perfectly every time.
