Ingredients
- 1 (4-pound) corned beef brisket, seasoning packet discarded
- 1½ teaspoons garlic powder
- 1½ teaspoons onion powder
- 1 (12-ounce) bottle of cola or another sweet carbonated beverage
Instructions
- Prepare the Brisket: Place the corned beef brisket fat-side up on a rack inside your electric pressure cooker.
- Season: Sprinkle the garlic powder and onion powder evenly over the brisket.
- Add Liquid: Pour the soda into the pressure cooker around the brisket.
- Cook: Close and lock the lid. Select the “Meat” setting according to your pressure cooker’s instructions and set the timer for 1 hour and 30 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for the pressure to build before cooking begins.
- Release Pressure: Once the cooking time is complete, use the natural-release method to release the pressure (about 10 to 40 minutes).
- Serve: Unlock the lid, remove the brisket, discard the fat if desired, and slice the meat against the grain before serving.
Notes
- For a complete meal, add vegetables like carrots, potatoes, and cabbage after cooking the brisket. Cook them for 5 more minutes on high pressure.
- Use brown sugar and spices to rub the brisket for an enhanced taste.
