Truth!
I’d say myth 1 is that it’s even edible. Definitely false.
I’ve always liked the canned corned beef - but some brands are much better than others.
We keep lots of it in our emergency stash.
My grandmother would fry the canned hash in bacon grease. That was good, too.
The stuff is way too salty for my taste. I do love a nice corned beef hash with a couple sunny side up eggs, but made from real corned beef, not canned and not over salted.
Right on! I love canned corned beef hash!!!! Although one can of Libby’s CBH i opened was all moldy!
A friend loves his canned corned beef and strawberry jam sandwiches ,LOL
Corned beef tastes like cured beef tongue. It’s good! I’ve had beef tongue cut from a butchered steer. It is good.
I am always reminded of Louisiana Governor Heuy P. Long. While traveling he pulled into a cafe. Being recognized the owner said he would give him the special of the day. Beef tongue.
Huey said: “I ain’t gonna eat anything that came out of the mouth of a Cow! Fry me a couple of eggs!”
(think on it....)
You’re right. I had some at a restaurant once that was homemade but really wasn’t very good.
I’ve had plenty of corned beef hash from cans, and plenty of SPAM, but haven’t ever tried canned corn beef.
Yep....Corned beef hash from a can with 2 over easy eggs ...best breakfast ever.....
Canned corned beef is just the meat, like a can of spam, canned corn beef hash has potatoes.
I remember corned beef hash (in a can) when I was a kid. it was pretty good. I tried some this year and it was terrible. I don’t know if my taste buds changed or it was a different brand but I’m passing on the CBH in a can.
No corn? Can I sue the manufacturer?
Pardon?
Canned corn beef is more expensive than canned chicken, canned tuna and canned ham.
Which is why I can it myself but even then, not that cheap.
I have 6 lbs. of deer meat “corning” in the fridge right now. Will can it in a few more days. And corned hake is fantastic.
Well that salt corns thing is new. Never heard that and I actually doubt the explanation. First, I thought the corns were peppercorns from which black pepper comes from and when you open a corned beef there are lots of peppercorns in there. Not that that means anything. The other possible explanation is that it was originally from Cornwall like Cornish game hens.
I always thought it was because the beef were corn fed. 😏
Had it for breakfast……with some scrambled eggs. 😀
Two days ago, wife bought a large corned beef...
Wife makes corned beef and cabbage twice a month (at my request)... Two-days supper...
Then corned-beef sandwiches for a couple of days at lunch...
Finally, she grinds some the leftover up and makes hash that gives me two-days of fantastic breakfast...
I sometimes add a blob of real maple syrup over the eggs and corned-beef hash just for fun...
