Preparation Steps
  1. Insert the steamer rack or trivet into the Instant Pot, making sure it sits securely at the bottom.
  2. Place the corned beef on the trivet, adding any juices that come in the package.
  3. Pour in 4 cups of water, then toss in the chopped onion, minced garlic, and bay leaves.
  4. Secure the Instant Pot lid, set the valve to sealing, and cook on high-pressure for 1 hour and 15 minutes.
  5. Perform a quick release of the pressure by turning the valve to venting and let the beef rest under foil.
  6. While the corned beef rests, add chopped carrots, cabbage wedges, and potato chunks to the cooking liquid.
  7. Close the lid and cook the vegetables on high or stew setting for an additional 10 minutes.
  8. Once done, perform another quick release and carefully remove the lid.
  9. Slice the rested corned beef against the grain and arrange it on a platter with the vegetables.
