Corned Beef Hash is a classic savory and salty breakfast or brunch meal made with slow-cooked corned beef and we-ll seasoned diced potatoes. There’s nothing quite like this - easy, hearty, meaty and filling dish any time of the day. This corned beef hash is the perfect St. Patrick’s Day treat!
Rinse corned beef and pat dry with paper towel. Rinsing the beef is not a requirement. Rinsing would remove any excess salt, resulting in a milder flavor.
Brown both sides of beef in a large cast iron skillet. Remove from skillet and place in slow cooker.
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together garlic, brown sugar, vinegar, mustard, salt and pepper. Pour into slow cooker. Use your hands to rub mixture all over beef.
Add bay leaf and thyme to slow cooker. Add water to slow cooker. Water should come about a quarter of the way up the beef.
Cook for 8-9 hours turning occasionally. (cook 4 hours on high heat and 4-5 on low).
Corned Beef Hash
Melt 1 tablespoon of butter in a large cast iron skillet. If you don’t have a cast iron skillet, any skillet will do. Cook onions and garlic until fragrant. About 1-2 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, remove garlic and onions and reserve on separate plate.
Toss potatoes in a light coating of olive oil and season with salt and pepper to taste. Keep in mind the corned beef is salty and will add that salty flavor so be careful when adding the salt. Add 2 tablespoons butter to the same skillet. Add potatoes and cook over medium/low heat until tender - about 15 minutes. Add Italian seasoning and mix well.
Return garlic and onions to the skillet and mix until completely mixed in.
Add corned beef and Worcestershire sauce. Use a rubber spatula to mix scraping the bottom of the pan each time.
Cook over medium heat until crisp and tender - about 15-20 minutes.
Garnish with fresh parsley or green onions. Serve with fried egg to complete your meal.
