Notes
When your beef brisket has finished cooking in the Instant Pot and the Airfryer make sure you have sharpened up your knives first before you slice it up as it’s very easy to slip with blunt knives when chopping a beef cut like brisket.
You could use our homemade bread buns or you could use shop bought. If you do make your own, then you can use the Airfryer to prove them. Then cook the bread buns first and the Airfryer will be nice and warm for crisping your beef brisket.
The brisket that we used was 2.6 kilos and was enough to make 6 decent sized sandwiches or if you are tight on portions you could stretch it to 8 people. It is a good idea to season it a second time before it goes in the Airfryer. This is because pressure cookers remove some of the flavouring the way it is cooked.
We have found the best place to source beef brisket to make Instant Pot Beef Brisket is from ButcherBox. You even receive free bacon and $10 off your first order when you sign up with this link.
