How to Make Instant Pot Instant Pot Corned Beef Reuben Sandwiches
First, you toast rye bread. You can either use a toaster or do this in a skillet. If you use a skillet, spray it with olive oil over medium-high heat. You can add the cheese slices on top of one of the bread slices so that the cheese melts while the bread toasts.
Next, load up your corned beef brisket.

This looks great except for the shredded corned beef. Is there any way the corned beef brisket would come out of the Instant Pot so it could be sliced not shredded?
staysnatched says
It comes out whole. I shredded it.
