1. Step 1

   To start your delicious corned beef brisket, gather all your ingredients: water, beer, minced garlic, and the corned beef brisket along with its spice packet.

2. Step 2

   In your Instant Pot, pour in the water and beer, then add the minced garlic for that extra flavor kick.

   Gently set the brisket on top of the trivet, and don’t forget to sprinkle the spice packet evenly over the meat to infuse it with those wonderful seasonings.

5. Step 5

   Now, it’s time to seal the deal! Close and lock the lid of your Instant Pot, then select the high-pressure setting according to your model’s instructions.

   Set the timer for 90 minutes and take a moment to appreciate the aromas that will soon fill your kitchen as the pressure builds up—this usually takes about 10 minutes.

7. Step 7

   Once the timer goes off, it’s time for the exciting part: carefully release the pressure using the quick-release method as directed by your Instant Pot’s manual.

8. Step 8

   This should take around 5 minutes.

   When the pressure has fully released, unlock and remove the lid, revealing your perfectly cooked brisket.

10. Step 10
