It seriously could not be easier to prepare this Instant Pot Brisket. Start by rubbing your brisket with salt, chili powder, and liquid smoke (if you decide to use it). Put water in the Instant Pot before putting the brisket inside on a trivet. Close the lid and turn the valve to a Sealing position. Press the “Manual” button and set the timer to seventy minutes on high pressure.

When your timer goes off and you brisket is done cooking, unplug the Instant Pot from the outlet and let the pressure release naturally for twenty minutes, then quick release the remaining steam.

Preheat your oven to broil before removing the brisket from the Instant Pot and placing it on a baking sheet. This is where the magic happens. Broil your brisket for five minutes, or until the top is perfectly browned.

For serving, slice your beautifully done brisket into thin slices across the grain. This Instant Pot Brisket is great with BBQ sauce!

You can also make this recipe ahead of time (in fact, I always make it ahead myself). Put the brisket slices in a baking dish and mix the cooking liquid from the Instant Pot with one cup of barbeque sauce.

Pour it over the sliced brisket and cover the dish with a lid before refrigerating.

Before serving your Instant Pot Brisket, reheat it covered in the oven for twenty minutes, or until hot. Whether you make your brisket ahead of serve it fresh out of the oven, you do not want to miss one bite of this tasty recipe. It makes a mean brisket that you are going to be fawning over for days to come!
