Ingredients

Servings

Instructions

  1. Place the brisket in a pot of water and rinse it two or three times to remove extra salt. Pat it dry with paper towels.
  2. Mix together the mustard, honey and apple cider vinegar in a small bowl. If you have pickling spices you can mix those in as well or sprinkle them on top of the brisket.
  3. Lay two large pieces of foil on your countertop and place the brisket in the middle. Brush the ⅔ of mustard / honey paste over the whole brisket.
  4. Wrap the brisket in the foil, tightly, and place in the air fryer basket. Cook for 1 hour at 350°F (180°C).
  5. Open the foil and baste the brisket with any remaining paste. Wrap again and cook for a further 40 minutes or until the internal temperature is a minimum of 145°F / 63° when checked with a meat thermometer.
  6. If you like a crisp top then uncover the brisket and cook it for about 5 minutes at 400°F / 200°C.
  7. Rest the brisket for 10 minutes before slicing against the grain with a sharp knife.

Notes

  •  
  • Contains affiliate links. For more information, check my disclosure
  • I cooked my corned beef brisket in a 5.8 QT Cosori Air Fryer. A meat thermometer is the best way to check whether the corned beef is cooked without drying it out. I swear by my Thermapen!
  • I like to grind the pickling spices in a spice grinder or a pestle and mortar before using.
  • When slicing your corned beef you want to cut against the grain and cut thin slices. Use a large serrated knife and slice in a see-sawing motion, slow and steady. 
  • Only slice as much corned beef as you are serving. Wrap any leftovers in foil and keep refrigerated for up to three days.
  • You can reheat corned beef in the air fryer – slices will need only 2-3 minutes at 350°F (180°C). A large piece of corned beef will need about 8-10 minutes.
