PRESSURE COOKER CORNED BEEF AND CABBAGE



Pressure Cooker Corned Beef and Cabbage image

Corned beef is really just brisket that's been cured in salt and spices. Historically, this was done for preservation, but the method of "corning" has remained because it transforms the meat into a bold, aromatic and salty treat. You can corn your own brisket if you have a week to spare, or you can buy one that's brined but uncooked, which is what is used here. Each one comes with a little sachet of pickling spices, usually coriander and mustard seeds, allspice and crumbled bay leaf. Make sure to fish it out of the package and save it, because those spices perfume the beef as it braises. Get a corned beef made from flat-cut brisket, if you can, as it will be easier to slice into neat, uniform slabs. (The point cut has more striations of fat and may fall apart when sliced.) Serve this satisfying one-pot meal with mustard and beer. (If you have more time, or you don't have a pressure cooker, here are slow cooker and oven versions of the recipe.)

Time 2h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 to 3 1/2-pound ready-to-cook corned beef, preferably flat-cut
1 1/4 cups semi-dry white wine, such as Riesling
1 pound red or Yukon gold potatoes, cut into 1- to 2-inch pieces
2 to 3 large carrots (about 1/2 pound), peeled and cut into 1- to 2-inch pieces
1/2 small head green or savoy cabbage (about 1 pound), core left intact, cut into 4 wedges
3 tablespoons Dijon mustard, plus more for serving
2 tablespoons honey
Flaky sea salt, if necessary
Black pepper

Steps:

  • Remove the corned beef from its packaging in the sink and reserve the spice packet. Rinse the beef well under cold running water and pat it dry with paper towels. (If you don't rinse the brine off the meat, it will be too salty.) If there is a substantial fat cap on top of the beef, you can place the beef on a cutting board and trim most of it, if you'd like. (The fat will not completely render away during cooking.) Be sure to leave at least a thin layer of fat on top, about 1/8- to 1/4-inch thick, to keep the meat moist.
  • Put the corned beef into the pressure cooker with the fat cap facing up. Add the wine and the spices from the packet. Cover and set steam valve to sealed position. Cook on high pressure for 60 minutes. Let the pressure release naturally for 15 minutes, then release the remaining pressure manually.
  • Open the lid. Drop the potatoes and carrots into the liquid that surrounds the beef. Lay the cabbage wedges on top. Cover and set steam valve to sealed position. Cook on high pressure for 15 more minutes.
  • Let the pressure release naturally for 10 minutes, then release the remaining pressure manually. Open the lid. Using tongs, remove the cabbage wedges, potatoes and carrots to a serving platter.
  • Heat the broiler to high. Stir together the mustard and honey in a small bowl. Using tongs, remove the corned beef from the pressure cooker and put it on a foil-lined sheet pan. Spread the honey-mustard all over the top and sides of the beef and place it under the broiler; cook until the glaze bubbles and caramelizes in spots, about 3 minutes.
  • Let the corned beef rest for 5 to 10 minutes then slice it against the grain into 1/2-inch slabs. Place the beef slices on the serving platter alongside the vegetables and drizzle everything with a little bit of the cooking liquid. Taste the vegetables, and season them with flaky sea salt, if necessary. (The beef will not need to be seasoned with salt.) Season the beef and vegetables to taste with black pepper. Serve with Dijon mustard.

INSTANT POT® CORNED BEEF



Instant Pot® Corned Beef image

Corned beef used to be a weekend only treat for me due to how long it took to cook, until I discovered the Instant Pot®. Save yourself time and hassle by letting your Instant Pot® do all of the work for you, and in a fraction of the time. You can have it and all of the fixings on your table in 2 hours. If you decide to fix cabbage, be sure to keep it in large wedges so that it does not overcook.

PRESSURE COOKER CORNED BEEF AND CABBAGE



Pressure Cooker Corned Beef and Cabbage image

Pressure Cooker Corned Beef and Cabbage. My tradition on St. Patrick's Day.

Provided by Mike Vrobel

Categories     Sunday Dinner

Time 1h20m

Number Of Ingredients 6

4 pound corned beef with its spice packet
1 medium onion, quartered
1 stalk celery, quartered crosswise
Water to cover (about 4 cups)
1 pound carrots, peeled and cut into 2 inch lengths (or a 1 pound bag of baby carrots)
1 small (3 pound) cabbage, cut into 8 wedges

Steps:

  • Rinse the corned beef, then cut it crosswise into 4 equal pieces. Put the corned beef, onion, and celery in the pressure cooker pot, sprinkle with the spice packet, then pour in enough water to cover the corned beef. Bring the pressure cooker up to high pressure and cook at high pressure for 50 minutes (stove top PC) or 60 minutes (electric PC). Quick release the pressure, then carefully remove the lid. Test the corned beef with a fork - it should be easy to poke a fork through the thickest section. If it's not done, lock the lid and cook for another ten minutes at high pressure.
  • Add carrots to the pot, then lay the cabbage on top. It's OK if the cabbage comes a bit above the "no fill" line on your cooker; there will still be a lot of airspace. Bring the cooker back up to pressure and cook at high pressure for 5 minutes. Quick release the pressure again. Using a slotted spoon and/or tongs, transfer the vegetables to a platter and the corned beef to a carving board.
  • Pour the broth left in the pot into a gravy strainer. While the broth settles, slice the corned beef. Pour a little of the de-fatted broth over the platter of corned beef and vegetables. Serve, passing the rest of the broth at the table.
