Drain and rinse the corned beef well.Place the corned beef on the trivet inside a 6-quart Instant Pot and add the seasonings and onion. Pour in just enough water to come half way up the brisket-that's all that's necessary and probably could get by with less.
Put the lid on the Instant Pot and seal the valve.
Set the Instant Pot to manual (high) pressure for 1.5 hours. For a 4 pound brisket, cook 1 hour 40 minutes.
Allow the pot to release naturally for 15 minutes after cooking, then quick release. Remove the brisket to a cutting board and let cool to the touch.
Cut the brisket across the grain into slices or shred it.
Grilled Reuben Sandwiches:
Spread the salad dressing evenly on both sides of the bread slices. Add 3 ounces of sliced or shredded corned beef, 1/4 cup sauerkraut, and 1/2 cup cheese on 4 slices.
Heat a nonstick skillet or griddle until hot
Spread softened butter on the top pieces of bread and place that side down in the pan.
Now, spread the remaining butter evenly on the other side of the sandwich bread which will now be on the top.
Cook 2 minutes or until the bread is lightly browned. Turn gently with a spatula and cook 1 to 2 minutes on the other side until lightly browned and the cheese is melted.
Cook in batches if using a skillet.
