Man... I'm so giving this stuff a try!!! Feel like I'm a little (or maybe, a lot) behind on this. Heading to Baja for a couple of weeks and looking for something new to cook over the campfire.
So I grew up with Corned Beef dinners and always looked forward to home made hash the next day. I've never been a fan of the canned stuff, so here's what I usually do. If you're going on a long trip it's pretty good idea to get/bring along a six quart pressure cooker. The corned beef can be made in 1 - 1 1/2 hours with the potatoes and (I always do green beans) cabbage if that's your taste. The green beans can go in once the pressure has dropped. This gives you great leftovers for corned beef sandwiches and hash for the next few days. When going on a short trip, I just make the corned beef in a slow cooker the day before I leave and slice up some of the meet for sandwiches and then make a container of the hash already already cut up.
Yes a lot more work than opening a can, but if read the label on that can I'm sure there is enough sodium and many stabilizers/chemicals that you can probably do without. Just an alternative if you want to eat somewhat healthier.
definitely gonna give this a shot! Always do corned beef in a Dutch oven on a shallow bed of onions and Guinness, but we sous vide all the time too. Just never corned beef. Thanks!I'll do the hormel when I'm lazy, which is.. like most of the time.
However, during March before St Paddy's, I'll pick up 4 of the fresh ones and freeze 3 of them for the rest of the year. I wash the slime off, use the spice packet, throw in a head or two of cabbage and a few rough cubed potatoes (or those baby potatoes with skin) and throw it all into a bag and vacpack it. I'll sous vide or slow cooker it for about 10hrs at 175-180f.
Comes out flakey, tender, and moist, but won't dissolve under the pressure of a knife when slicing. All the salt transfers into the cabbage and potatoes so it's perfectly seasoned. Add a dollop of mustard and you're g2g. Great for sandwiches or just by itself.
Sorry,just can’t do canned corned beef hash either. I’m sure it goes against the original theme, but Dutch oven corned beef dinner followed by legit corned beef hash and eggs the next morning really has to be the best breakfast ever,right?
