Tips

Serve vegetables with your corned beef! While the cooked brisket is resting, remove the trivet; place baby carrots, quartered red potatoes, and large cabbage wedges in the bottom of the Instant Pot. Close and lock the lid; set timer for 5 minutes. Unlock and remove the lid; serve vegetables with rested brisket.
