By the way our Corned Beef turned out Great this evening. First time I used a pressure cooker. It worked well on the Beef, but the veggies I added with about 6 min. left to cook the beef were very over cooked and mushy. I think a person needs to be very experienced cooking veggies in a pressure cooker to get them to come out right!

The beef was perfect and very tasty. The veggies like the cabbage were quite mushy! I used whole tiny new potatoes and they cook up good in those last six min. but the carrots onions and cabbage were almost liquified they were so soft!

I’ve never used a pressure cooker. My mom did, but that was a long time ago and they have changed. Not so scarey now. is there a minimum amount of time that must be set? Could you add the more fragile veggies with about 3 minutes to go?

I know that picture looked great! We have fixed several corned beef briskets lately, one just last weekend, but have not pressure cooked it. We got the craves for homemade Rubeun sandwiches, then done a couple with cabbage and a couple with new potatos. We have a pressure cooker, but I have used it in forever. Maybe it is time!
