Check out our recipe for making Ninja Foodi Corned Beef and Cabbage!
I LOVE corned beef and cabbage and am so excited to share our corned beef and cabbage Ninja Foodi recipe with you all!!! This is a very basic recipe..no bells and whistles! Just good, tender, juicy corned beef!

I literally hunt down restaurants that serve corned beef and call ahead to make sure that they have it before going to the restaurant. Why is corned beef soooo good? There is no reason that you should only eat this delicious cut of meat around St. Patrick's day or at a restaurant. You can make corned beef and cabbage on a more regular basis at home!

Usually, I am super impatient and cannot seem to wait long enough to eat it....because it takes sooo long to cook! I have always made corned beef and cabbage in the crock pot and it took about 8 hours to fully cook it until tender.
I have great news for anybody else that is impatient when it comes to corned beef.....you can cook it in the Ninja Foodi......to all of its tender goodness....in only 90 minutes! What??? For real? Yes!!!!
The best way to cook corned beef is in a pressure cooker! It turns out more flavorful and tender than even a crock pot makes it. I hope you like our corned beef and cabbage Ninja Foodi recipe as much as we do!!

Tips for making Ninja Foodi Corned Beef and Cabbage
Yes! Be patient! Be sure to naturally release the pressure. If you quick release the pressure, the corned beef will not be as tender.
No. The vegetables take substantially less time to cook than the corned beef does. Add in the vegetables at the end. If you add the vegetables and cook for the full 90 minutes, they will be way overcooked.
Slice the corned beef diagonal across the grain of the meat. If you slice the meat with the grain, it will be chewy and stringy.
When cooking the vegetables, place the cabbage on top of the potatoes and carrots. The steam will cook the cabbage and it will not be overcooked from being in the water.
Corned beef hash!! Save your leftover corned beef and make corned beef hash for breakfast!! Seriously- do this. Oftentimes I make corned beef and cabbage just so that I can make corned beef hash for breakfast!!
How good does our homemade corned beef hash look?? You seriously need to try this with any leftover corned beef that you might have.....or do what I do and just make an extra corned beef!!! Yummmm!! Check out our recipe here!

Ingredients substitutions and tips for making Ninja Foodi Corned Beef and Cabbage
Pre-packaged corned beef with spice packet- any size will do. I used a 3-pound corned beef
Carrots-large carrots cut into 3-inch pieces
Cabbage- quartered
Potatoes- you can use any kind of potatoes that you would like but I prefer to use red potatoes and cut them into quarters.

Fat cap up or down?
Lauren Cardona
I usually do the fat cap up so that the juices go into the meat.
Arthur LeDoux
Made this tonight and it was absolutely fabulous! Used one cup beef stock and three cups water.
Cooked vegetables for 4 minutes with cabbage on top as noted in recipe. Perfect
Kathy J
Everything was amazing.
Terry
This was the best corned beef I’ve ever made. So tender it was falling apart. The only thing I would change is the veggies needed more like 5 minutes. They were cooked, but not as soft as I would prefer. I used beer and broth for my liquid instead of water.
Lisa C.
So, no need to change the cooking time no matter the size of the corned beef? I’m making a 5 pound corned beef. Does that still apply for such a large one? Thanks!
TheTastyTravelers
90 minutes should work regardless the size. I make this every couple of weeks and have made all different sizes, even 2 at a time, and I always stick to 90 minutes. Perfectly tender every time! 🙂

I have the ninja foodie five in one air fryer/indoor grill how do I cook corn beef in this ninja device
TheTastyTravelers
Hi Lisa! I haven't experimented with cooking corned beef in the air fryer or the grill yet so I can't provide any recommendations on this one. 🙁
Kim
Dinner was amazing! Your directions and hints were perfect! Thanks for sharing
Bonnie
Do you place the trivet in the position that's closest to the bottom, or turn it upside down to where it sits up high?
TheTastyTravelers
You want the corned beef to be raised out of the water just a little bit. I use a very low trivet-maybe 1 inch off the bottom. 🙂
Bonnie Logan
How many servings does this make?
TheTastyTravelers
It really depends on the size of your corned beef. You can use any size for this recipe and keep the cook time and amount of liquid the same. We usually get 4-6 servings out of our corned beefs. 🙂
Patricia M. Baros
Can I add fresh green beans and snap peas?
TheTastyTravelers
You can but they won’t take as long to cook as the other vegetables so you might be better off cooking them separately.
William S
How much longer do I cook the corned beef if I start with frozen?
TheTastyTravelers
No need to change the cook time. Since it’s frozen it will just take longer to get up to pressure. During that extra time it will thaw it out. 🙂

It is St. Patty's day and we are stuck at home because of coronavirus (COVID-19) isolation going on so I searched how to do this in a Ninja Foodi and this came up. I followed everything in recipe and I can tell you it was a huge success!! It worked perfect!! Thank you for allowing me to still give my family a great meal with this recipe on a special day with our ancestry.
TheTastyTravelers
I’m so glad that it turned out perfectly!!! Happy St Patrick’s Day! ☘️☘️☘️
