Instant Pot Corned Beef with Cabbage, Carrots, and Buttered Potatoes
Report
This classic recipe for Instant Pot Corned Beef with Cabbage, Carrots, and Buttered Potatoes is a great way to celebrate St. Patrick's Day! It takes half the amount of time in the pressure cooker as on the stovetop. The best part is the potatoes, smothered in melted butter and fresh parsley, and the corned beef is perfectly cooked to a fall-apart texture.

Notes
- If your corned beef didn't come with a spice packet, no worries! You can make your own seasoning mix.
- Stovetop Instructions: To make this on your stovetop, simmer corned beef in a large covered pot with the spice packet, garlic, onions, and water for 2 hours. Add the potatoes, cabbage, and carrots to the pot on top of the brisket and simmer for 30 more minutes, or until vegetables are very tender. Proceed as instructed above, making sure to reserve some cooking liquid for serving.
- Slow Cooker Instructions: To make this in your slow cooker, add corned beef, spice packet, garlic, onions, potatoes, and carrots to the slow cooker. Cook on high for four hours or low for 8 hours. Add the cabbage on top and continue cooking for 45 minutes-1 hour, or until cabbage is tender. Proceed as instructed above, making sure to reserve some cooking liquid for serving.
- Storing Leftovers: Corned beef has a tendency to dry out. Store any leftovers with the cooking liquid in order to keep it moist.
- Make it dairy-free/paleo: For a dairy-free version, use ghee instead of butter (or omit entirely). For a Whole30/Paleo compliant version, make sure to use a compliant corned beef as well as ghee.
- I made this recipe in my 6 qt. Instant pot. It should work the same in an 8 qt., but you may need to cut the ingredients in half for a 3 qt. mini.
