How to Make Cabbage in an Electric Pressure Cooker

Cris here.

I LOVE this recipe. I have always loved this recipe, but now I am even more in love with it because I can make it super quick in my Instant Pot.When we would grill out as a kid, my mom would always make boiled cabbage to go with it. Sometimes she would even make a grilled version where she would remove the core of the cabbage and insert the butter into the center.

So how easy is it to make cabbage in an Instant Pot? Incredibly easy. You just slice up your cabbage, put it in a 6 quart electric pressure cooker along with your broth, butter, salt and pepper. Put the lid on and set to seal. Cook on high pressure for 5-10 minutes (depending on how tender you want your cabbage) and once it is done cooking, quick release. It is that easy! And oh-so yummy!!

Camping with an Instant Pot:Instant Pot Cabbage

When we started RVing and cooking out of our camper kitchen, nostalgia hit and I wanted to make cabbage to go with our meals. Our little camper microwave takes forever to cook it up though AND the cabbage would take up WAY too much real estate on our tiny camper grill. We could make our Crock Pot Cabbage, but it is just a little different and takes all day. Instant Pot to the rescue. I can whip up an entire cabbage in minutes and it tastes just like mom used to make. We now make it ALL. THE. TIME. Especially since it is a low carb veggie we can serve up for family dinner for those of us eating low carb meals.
