It’s the perfect way to make this Ninja Foodi corned beef and cabbage recipe.
This is what you need for Ninja Foodi corned beef and cabbage:
- Corned beef – 3 lbs. is usually best
- This is a point cut brisket, there’s flat cut and round as well
- Potatoes – either 4 large red or 2 large russet
- Beer – I just buy what is on sale
- Cabbage
- Onion – optional
Yes, we are using potatoes as a trivet!!
That means they will become yummier than you could ever imagine.
We don’t really drink beer here so I only have it on hand to make this and the best beer bread recipe which is actually a great side with this!
You will need 1 can for our Ninja Foodi corned beef and cabbage recipe.
We are going to use the pressure cooker function for cooking corned beef and cabbage here. Similar to our Ninja Foodi roast recipe that came out oh so tender too.
Yes we have made a slow cooker corned beef brisket before and it was fabulous. This is just another way but takes a fraction of the time and comes out just as good.
When your Ninja Foodi corned beef and cabbage is done it will be fork tender and SO flavorful.
If you wonder why I use potatoes as trivets instead of using a trivet with handles, this is why. Pressure cooker potatoes soak up all the flavors inside the pot which makes these out of this world.
If you’re looking for more Ninja Foodi recipes we have many.
We have a few side dishes for our Ninja Foodi corned beef and cabbage too:
- Easy cabbage recipes
- This pull apart bread recipe is so good
- Then make this Irish potato candy for dessert
You can make dutch oven corned beef and cabbage too if you have one of those!
Ninja Foodi Corned Beef and Cabbage
Ingredients
- 2.5-3 lb corned beef brisket
- 12 oz beer
- 4 large red potatoes or 2 large russet cut in half
- 1 onion sliced, optional
- 1/2 head cabbage
Instructions
- Wash your potatoes and rinse off your corned beef.
- If using large red potatoes set them in the middle close together, use similar sizes so you can set beef on top of them. If using 2 large russets slice them both in half and set them cut side down into middle of pot. These will be your trivet.
- Set corned beef piece on top of potatoes so it sits flat.
- Pour beer on top of meat.
- Sprinkle packet of corned beef seasoning on top of meat, it is included inside your meat pouch.
- Close your pressure cooking lid (one that isn't attached), and close steam valve.
- Turn Ninja Foodi on, then press pressure button. Set to high for 1 hr 25 minutes (for 2.5-3 lbs. this time works well). Press start. Allow to naturally release pressure for about 15 minutes when done.
- Release rest of steam if there is any after about 15 min. Remove piece of corned beef and set on cutting board, cover.
- Remove potatoes, put in a bowl and cover so they stay warm.
- Cut bottom off cabbage and separate the top layer of leaves so you have about 8-10 large pieces. Slice your onion into large pieces.
- Add onions into pot with juices, then add cabbage leaves.
- Put pressure lid back on. Close steam valve. Turn pot on, press pressure, high for 3 minutes. Press start.
- Do a quick release when done.
- Slice corned beef and serve with some potatoes, onions, and cabbage from the pot. Enjoy

I know, so good!
Taylor says
I’m trying to do closer to 6 lbs. Should I double the time?
Justine says
No. Someone else did 4.5 lbs and said my timing still worked. May increase by 10-15 min I’d guess but I haven’t done one that big so not 100% sure. Can always recluse and set longer if initial time isn’t long enough.
Taylor says
ok thanks!
Holly says
In process of making this in my new Ninja Foodi…making cabbage, onions and carrots. Large red potatoes as trivet. Will let you know how it comes out-:)
Linda woods says
Can I use small red potatoes as trivet or use trivet with basket to cook corned beef and cabbage and cook potatoes separately?
The Typical Mom says
I’d use medium size red potatoes as the trivet, 3 or 4.
