Season the brisket with salt and pepper; in the cooker sear the brisket on all sides
using the BROWN setting. Remove the brisket and add the onion, carrots, celery,
garlic and bay leaves in the cooker. Meanwhile, spread the mustard all over the
brisket. Sprinkle 1 envelope of soup mix on each side. Place the brisket in the
cooker, fat-side up, on top of the vegetables, then top the meat with the remaining
vegetables. Pour the wine and Worcestershire over the meat and vegetables.
Close and secure cover and using the MEAT setting set the timer for 56 minutes.
Turn unit off and allow to cool until the pressure is reduced. Uncover, remove the
brisket from the pan and let it cool to room temperature. Slice the meat against
the grain, as thinly as possible. De-fat the sauce and place the sliced meat back
into the sauce and vegetables.
