    Okay, a hint I found in a very old cook book with canned corned beef. Take a tablespoon of diced onion fry on tiny amount of butter or cooking oil, then mix in a Tablespoon of whole milk and the hash. The milk makes it crispier and the onion adds a little flavor.

    Reading through the comments makes me really happy. Growing up my Grandpa always made us corn beef it was Libby's in a square can. And instead of dicing the potatoes he always cubed them into larger pieces, as an adult I've learned that it's a lot easier to cook with diced potatoes but for me I always cube them as a way of remembering him now that he's passed.
    Thanks for posting the video and cheers to everyone in the comments, I'm definitely taking some notes on new options.

      Most companies that make products like this buy pre-diced frozen potatoes from the same supplier, Simplot, in 50 lb bags. That's why the potatoes in different brands of corned beef hash all look the same. I learned this when I worked for a freeze-dried food manufacturer long ago.
      Simplot sells smaller bags in grocery stores now, but I cut whole potatoes larger when I make it too. Seems homier somehow.

      Dice an onion, sautee with some thyme and rosemary a pinch of salt and when it starts to brown add the potatoes, fresh-ground black pepper and continue the sautee until the potatoes start to break down and brown, add diced deli-sliced corned beef (once corned beef is sealed in a can, it should stay there, likewise canned corned beef hash), toss and allow it to brown, turn and brown some more, serve topped with a poached egg.

    My dad was an organic chemist and consultant to the food industry. In the 70s, the FDA hired him to do a series of seminars for people who taught meat inspectors. First, they flew him around the country to take notes on seven different meat packing facilities. He said that by far, the cleanest and best run organization was Hebrew National, and the absolute worst was Hormel.

      I worked for Hormel on the 80s. I'm sorry. I made the thing they called "Top Shelf" but now call Hormel Compleats. Canned meals in a plastic tray canned like regular canned food but in a high temp plastic tray. We thought it was good but they wanted shelf stable good meals for Desert Storm when I was there. My mom said she liked compleats one day and I told her I worked there a long time ago but she has no memory of me working for Hormel. Must have blocked it out. I worked nights at Hormel and days for like 6 different famers making hay which she remembers but not Hormel. My friends made Hormel at night and Jenio turkey loafs during the day and they said they were worse but I loved them. I wish they still made them.

    @luminousmoon86 2 года назад +309

    I'm just gonna say, for corned beef hash at home, you gotta cook it way longer to get it really crispy like they do at diners and such. The stoves in diners and restaurants have a much higher BTU, so they can get that hash crispy in 5-10 minutes. On a home stove it takes much longer. I usually cook it for about 12-15 minutes on medium high, flip it, and then do it for 12-15 more minutes. Yes, that's like 30 minutes just for hash, but it turns out super crispy, just like you get at a diner.

    Hormel was always my go to as a kid to fry up with some eggs, as my parents left for work early and I was left to myself for breakfast. Some hash and eggs beat cereal every day. In fact, it's still a running gag between me and my grandmother, who gives me a can on certian special occasions. She grew up during the depression, so her recipes were simple and easy for me to learn... and probably why I enjoy watching your channel as well. I've since learned to cook all fancy, but I still keep a stockpile of corned beef hash in case of emergency ;) oh, and some green peppers from the garden (or canned earlier in the season) with the eggs really balances out the flavor of the meal altogether.

    Put the hash in a pan and heat it until it reaches the point of sizzling, but not quite browning. Add 2 eggs for a small can, 3 or 4 for a big can, depending on taste, then keep mixing while cooking until the mixture become crumbly. yummy.

    I am 72 years old and have eaten all of the brands of hash you have covered. A couple of years ago I discovered by accident while shopping at Smart and Final in my town their brand, First Street homestyle corned beef hash. It has been the best of all the others we have eaten. It is not greasy and has been very consistent in the flavor and texture which is more than I can say about any other brand. I have gotten some of the other brands that have been as much as 1/3 grease at times.

    I fry it up in ghee, which has a high smoke point (no burning) and get a buttery - not greasy flavor.

    Going heavier on the cooking oil gives you more crust. Also, you can chop up an onion and fry it alongside your hash, and add a sprinkle of salt, pepper, and MSG to make the whole thing even tastier. I'll sometimes round it out by frying some slices of stewed tomatoes alongside as well, though those need to be fried for much longer than the hash does in order to develop the char you want to see on a tomato slice. The corned beef hash I favor is the Aldi store brand "Brookdale" corned beef hash, in large part on cost.

    I always add a tablespoon or two of chopped onion to cook with my corned beef hash as it heats up. The grease in the hash lets to the onion soften as it cooks. Sooooo good!

    Like your videos. I worked for Carnation for 10 years. Any US company that cans meat for human consumption has to be USDA inspected. They are assigned an ":Establishment Code". Carnation's was 705. It will be stamped on one end of the can. So regardless of label or brand, everything coming out of that plant will have the same est code. By-the-way, Libby's in Nestle, who also bought Carnation in 1986.

    Thank you for a great video. Now let me give you a tip. Before you open the can turn it upside down and punch a small hole in the bottom near the edge. Now open the can as normal and hold it upside down over your skillet and blow in the hole sealing your lips tight against the can. 100% of the hash just slides out in one piece into the HOT skillet.

    I've been cooking mine in the air fryer for about a year. Line the lower rack with foil, lightly coat with avacado oil and spread out the hash. Cook at 400* for 10 minutes, then stir/flip and cook 8 more minutes. The minimal interaction required gives me time to make the coffee and eggs so everything is done about the same time. I use the Mary Kitchen hash and hit it with a little SPOGB (salt, pepper, onion, garlic, & powdered butter). My favorite corned beef has was at the Cracker Barrel, but they no longer have it on the menu.... I may have to give Libby's a try now

    I knew that Libby's was going to be the best. I'm not a big fan of their veggie line, but their canned meals and meats beat Armour and Hormel ANY DAY. I buy Libby's Country Sausage Gravy by the case. Back when I could eat anything, I'd go through a case every 6 or so weeks. Now, a year lol. (But I'm also down 125 pounds.) Libby's line isn't just salty, it legit has flavor. Love the hash, love the gravy. For the gravy I will fry up some skillet potatoes with onions and smother them. And with hash, I'll get it crisp, then scramble me an egg, and then toss it all together to make a "bowl" as restaurants like to call it today. Back 30 years ago, my mom just called it "lazy." Either way, it's cheap. Flavorful. And filling.

    Back in the ‘60’s, my Mom and Dad would cook corned beef for St. Patrick’s day. The next day, my Mon would break out the meat grinder and grind the left over corned beef then put the potato thru the grinder. She would mix the two together, add some extra seasonings (don’t remember what they were) stick it in the fridge then have it the next morning, crisped up with over easy fried eggs and a couple of pieces of toast. Made great breakfast sandwich. It was the BEST!

  • @tookitogo

    Regarding whether the store brand is made by Hormel: As a meat product, aren’t the cans required to have a production facility code on them? (I think there’s a USDA identification code for each plant.) If so, the two cans would have the same facility code. Doesn’t guarantee it’s the same recipe (though it’s likely), but does tell you who made it. I also think there’s a website where one can look up the codes.

    I usually use the armour one, and like the more moisture aspect.
    But because i cook it way longer.
    I usually add a bunch of ingredients and spices, and cook for a cook half hour on a medium heat. Doing it that way, the extra moisture helps when cooking it longer which makes a lot of the flavors come out more than they otherwise would have.
    The libbys one is better if you do a quicker higher heat cook. But for what i do, i do prefer the armour one. The hormel i find to worse than the others, using no matter how you cook it.

    Well, I don't really have much choice, since my Safeway only carries the Hormel, Hormel low salt, and generic Safeway brand (which looks like Hormel but is a dollar cheaper). I'm thinking about using the generic version as filling for homemade ravioli. :-)
