Instant Pot Corned Beef Dinner with Mustard Sauce

I have corned beef about once a year around St. Patrick’s Day. After I made this last night I wondered why I only make it once a year! It was so tasty. My kids kept eating and eating until it was almost completely gone! They loved it. I was hoping to use some of the leftover corned beef to make split pea soup today but there’s not enough left! Maybe I’ll have to make another corned beef today just so I can have some leftovers.

What made this dinner stand out to me was the sour cream mustard sauce that we served with it. My son literally kept putting spoonful after spoonful on top. He loved it! It’s not a necessity but I think you’ll really love it too.

A perfect dinner for St Patrick's Day (or any other day). 

To make Instant Pot Corned Beef Dinner with Mustard Sauce you have to cook the corned beef first and then add in the vegetables later. If you tried to pile everything in at the beginning the vegetables would be mush and would probably be unrecognizable. The corned beef actually needs 90 minutes to cook in the pressure cooker. This is quite a long cooking time for a pressure cooker recipe, but I promise it’ll be worth it.  After the meat is cooked I let it sit under a tent of foil while I quickly pressure cooked the potatoes and carrots. They only needed a 3 minute pressure cooking time. In fact, they were a little too soft with the 3 minute time, so next time I’ll only do a 1 minute cooking time. I didn’t have any cabbage at my house so I didn’t add that in but you could easily add it in with the carrots and potatoes.

What Pressure Cooker Did You Use?

To make Instant Pot Corned Beef Dinner with Mustard Sauce I used my 6 quart Instant Pot Duo 60 7 in 1*. I love this Instant Pot because it has the yogurt making function which I use almost weekly.  It has two pressure settings (high and low), and there are also little slots in the handles so that you can rest the lid there instead of putting it down on your counter-top.

Description

A super easy (and delicious) method for making corned beef! Tender corned beef is sliced and served alongside carrots and potatoes (and if you want, cabbage). Top your corned beef with a tangy sauce made of sour cream, dijon mustard and garlic. A perfect dinner for St Patrick’s Day (or any other day). 


Ingredients

Units Scale

For the corned beef:

  • 2–4 pounds of corned beef brisket (mine was 2.75 pounds), with seasoning
  • 2 Tbsp brown sugar
  • 2 bay leaves
  • 4 cups beef broth (or 4 cups water with 4 tsp Better than Bouillon Beef Base)

For the vegetables:

  • 6 carrots, peeled and cut into large chunks
  • 6 medium Russet potatoes, peeled and cut into quarters
  • 1 head of cabbage, cut into wedges (optional)

For the mustard sauce:

  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1 Tbsp dijon mustard
  • 1/8 tsp sugar
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 1/4 tsp kosher salt

Instructions

  1. Open the package of corned beef. Most of the time they’ll either have seasonings on top of them or they will come with a seasoning packet. Rinse off the corned beef well and then place the meat in the instant pot and pour seasonings over the top. Sprinkle with the brown sugar. Put bay leaves in bottom of the pot and then pour in the beef broth.
  2. Cover the pot and secure the lid. Make sure valve is on sealing. Set the manual/pressure cook button to 90 minutes. When the time is up let the pressure release naturally for 10 minutes and then move the valve to venting.
  3. Move the meat to a platter and cover loosely with foil.
  4. Add carrots and potatoes to the broth in the pot. If desired add in cabbage. Put the lid on the pot and seal the valve. Set the manual/pressure cook button to 1-3 minutes (3 minutes produced mashable carrots and potatoes, next time I’ll cook for only 1 minute). When timer is up perform a quick release by moving the valve to venting. Arrange the vegetables around the meat on the platter.
  5. Prepare the mustard sauce by whisking together the sour cream, mustard, sugar, garlic and salt.
  6. Serve mustard sauce with the corned beef and vegetables. Enjoy!

    Thanks for the great recipe, it was a huge success at tonight’s St. Patrick’s dinner. Followed the recipe to the t and it came out perfect. The only change I made was to add a tablespoon of creamed horseradish to sour cream mustard sauce which gave it that little extra zip.

    Happy St. Patrick’s Day. The corned beef was great. I cooked the carrots, potatoes and cabbage in the broth and they were seasoned just right. I took your suggestion and only cooked them for a minute and they were just the right texture. We loved the mustard sour cream sauce.

      Because it is a large thick piece of meat you will need to increase the pressure cooking time. I would add 20 minutes for frozen.

    Made this the other day. It was outstanding. I cooked the veg for three minutes as I don’t mind such braised veg being a little mashable. But I think next time I’ll take your advice and try 1 minute, instead.
    Hubby, whose parents are Irish and grew up eating this type of food, blessed himself afterward, looking up, said, “Mom, I love you, but your corned beef was never this good!”
    High praise, indeed!

    Holy cow! I’ve never had such fork-tender corned beef! I omitted the beef broth and used 4 cups of water–I learned that by doing that, it draws out some of the salt from the meat. We like to saute our cabbage instead of boil it so that it doesn’t get limp. Next time, I’m going to smoke it first then finish it in the pot.

        Hello! I made this in my 3 qt instant pot over the weekend and it turned out amazing!! So tender and flavorful!!

        My brisket was just under 3 pounds and I cut in in half to make it fit better into the smaller pot. Then I added 3 cups of water instead of 4 to be safe. The only change I made was to add a little minced garlic when I cooked the brisket as we love garlic!

        Then for the veggies, I used two rather large potatoes, a head of cabbage and filled in the rest of the space with baby carrots (the liquid can only go up to the line but you can fill over that with veggies.

        It was wonderful and my husband has asked for more so I ran to the store this morning to buy more brisket (it keeps several weeks).

        Finally, I also took the left over stock, put it in the fridge overnight, skimmed the fat off, and used it as a base to make some 16 bean soup. Yummy!!!

        Thanks for another awesome recipe!!!

      Yes I am sure you could use that. I bet the cooking time would be lower though. For a 4-pound corned beef (flat or point cut), we liked the texture of the meat best when cooked at high pressure for 85 minutes, with a 20-minute natural release.

    We had cabbage from the garden we needed to use so got a corned beef & searched your site last week for recipe. Found this one. It was MAGIC! So easy & so good. I added 1 tsp. of pickling spices & 1 T. of Zatarain’s Shrimp & Crab Boil (liquid, concentrated) because that’s how I’ve always cooked my corned beef. Your way was so much easier & quicker. BTW, your mustard sauce was THE BOMB & we used it with leftovers to make sandwiches (and we used it to dip chicken nuggets as well). You’ve made my life so much easier, please keep up the good work!

    Was quite delighted to see the recipe for corned beef, also known as “jigs” dinner in Newfoundland . However my mother used to wrap up peas ( dried) in a cheesecloth and hang it over the side to cook for hours in the pot with the beef and when all was done it was a tasty buttery peas pudding. So I was wondering if I might add them in the cheese cloth to the pot with the beef?

    Excellent. Mine was a little over 4 pounds but turned out perfectly. It was delicious! Loved the cabbage and veggies!

    Hi Karen,
    This was my first meal in the Instant Pot & it was a hit! The corned beef was less that 2 lbs, so I probably should have decreased the time a bit, but it still came out great! I was amazed the vegetables could cook so fast, but they were perfect. My family doesn’t care for mustard, so I just thickened the broth with corn starch [as you suggested] and everyone loved it. Thank you for this yummy recipe–keep up the good work 😉

    Who knew Corn Beef could be so good! I have made Corn Beef for years but this recipe is easy, clean and superb. I cut all the fat off before cooking to keep the grease low.
    Sauce was excellent
    Thanks!

    Excellent corned beef dinner, Karen! Put a halved onion and a couple of whole garlic cloves in with the corned beef. Cooked whole baby potatoes, carrots and cabbage cut into small wedges for 2 minutes. Perfect timing, not too soft. Mustard sauce was the bomb!! As one reviewer said, I added 1/4 teaspoon of creamy horseradish to the mustard sauce then spread the sauce on top of the cooked corned beef. Popped it under the broiler for 2 minutes to get a carmelized glaze. Your recipe sure beats the 9 hour recipe I’ve used for many years!

    I have a slow cooker recipe that I have made for years using two cans of cranberry sauce and packets of onion soup mix. But I would love to do this in my insta pot instead any suggestions on how I could make this work?

        yes (sorry) it’s called slow cooker cranberry corned beef by Betty Crocker. It uses one jellied and one berry can of cranberry sauce that you mix with onion soup mix and put it in the pot with the meat, carrots and onions (sprinkle the seasoning pack on top of meat first). It is really good but in the insta pot have to make sure you have enough liquid (I have 8qt). What would you recommend?

          I would put a cup of broth in the pot then the corned beef and onion soup mix sprinkled on top of the meat. Cook at stated in the recipe above. Then remove the meat and discard the liquid. add meat back into the pot Then stir in the cranberries. and use the saute setting to heat them up.

    I grew up on a pressure cooker – chicken and potatoes was often the meal my mom would make. Received my first cooker of my own in my 20’s and I’ve been using one ever since! I now have one that is stainless steel so it’s easier to clean than the old Presto model – it also has an easy release button to vent the steam when done.

    This sounds perfect! Do you think I could thicken the broth, sort of like ‘gravy’–my family doesn’t care for mustard?

      Sure, use cornstarch maybe to thicken!

      As large as will fit in there. Just don’t go over the max fill line.

    I use a crockpot recipe that uses mustard spread on top of the beef and brown sugar sprinkled on top of the mustard. Then a beer is poured around the beef and cooked for HOURS! Would a beer work or would the carbonation somehow mess with the pressure?

      I think it would totally work! Here is a recipe that does just that: https://boulderlocavore.com/instant-pot-corned-beef-brisket-recipe/

        Would you prefer the beer recipe over this one? Just trying to decide which to do. We just bought an AZ beer that’s dark but I don’t like it to drink.

    90 minutes of high pressure cook time was way to much time corned beef fell apart
    Will try 50 next time can always put it back in for additional cook time
    I agree the vegetable cook time needs to less than3 minutes

      Mine came out very tender. I was able to slice it, maybe because I used the normal setting.

      I cooked my veggies for 1 minute, would cook for two minutes next time. They were a little too firm for me.

      Didn’t even make the sauce, it was delicious just as it was.

    This looks amazing! My family loves St. Patrick’s Day specifically for the corned beef and cabbage – which I have made the same way year after year. I’m curious about the additional salt when using beef broth as opposed to water. I have used my crock pot in the past with just water and the seasoning packet that comes with the meat and it is always plenty salty. Does the broth not make it overly salty? I would love your feedback, please. Thanks in advance.

      I don’t think it made it too salty. But it did make the vegetables taste amazing because they were cooked in the broth and it flavored them really nicely. You could always use water too! I bet it would come out great.
