Newfoundland's Traditional Corned Beef Hash

[@NewfieLifestyle]

What's a childhood meal that you remember eating regularly but haven't had since you were a child?

[@dyllai9717]

Fried bloney and fried taters. Thick as da thumb

[@user-fs6ou3fk9p]

@NewfieLifestyle baked beans like you make them and dark rye bread. Mom was 100 percent Norwegian, so rye bread was something she and her family made.

[@NewfieLifestyle]

@user-fs6ou3fk9p rye bread would be perfect with the beans. We always had fresh bread rolls taken right from the oven whenever mom made beans. When mom was going to make a batch of bread, she would make her beans so we would have fresh bread rolls.

[@ironhell813]

Nothing, I still eat everything I ate as a child that I liked. My mom made horribly tough steak that i no longer eat

[@sherri-iw8xq]

Newfee steak leftover pot dinner veggies fresh bread and purdys mustard pickles 😊😊😊

[@carolynborden7257]

I am from Nova Scotia and make this quite often but after mixed I make the patties or just leave it altogether and fry up crisp!! Soo good. Love your shows. Thanks

[@NewfieLifestyle]

Mom used to do the same, and they were delicious

[@neilbradbury3700]

I remember making it with Libby's corned beef......still love it

[@user-fs6ou3fk9p]

What a fun memory of opening the can with the key.

[@NewfieLifestyle]

I know, it did bring back memories

[@Nob-c3j]

Did you, yourself have that memory?

[@user-fs6ou3fk9p]

@@Nob-c3j yes.

[@greybeardcanadian1036]

we used to make this during our summer camping with Scouts, though we added peas. Manitoba here

[@NewfieLifestyle]

That's awesome, I believe peas are one of the ingredients as well. It's a very hardy meal, I love it.

[@papercuts777]

balony, peas n tomatoes. weekly as a kid. ontario here

[@NeilABliss]

Big fan of Newfie cuisine.... been "ta da Rock" a few times Think I've had every recipe for Cod there is . But do remember Aunt Alice's Corned beef hash... and her Ship wreck dinner. Food may be pretty simple but it's delicious and hearty.

[@NewfieLifestyle]

You're absolutely right, sometimes itsbthe simple foods that are the most flavor. Glad to have you here and supporting the channel.

[@DanielParadis-sr5nh]

Thank you so much for sharing this recipe and video. I haven't eaten this since I was a kid, 50+ years ago! I know what I'm having within th next couple of weeks! Greetings from Maine, USA!

[@NewfieLifestyle]

You are so welcome!

[@heytherehowareyou1272]

Nice!!! Makes me hungry. Where I come from in southern New Brunswick my mother would boil the potatoes.... cut them up into small chunks and fry them in butter with the onions and corned beef..... letting it all sit long enough to get a browned on crunch... not burned, but just a buttery crunch. The mashed version looks super amazing too! Just what we were raised with..... I'm always open to trying new versions. Embrace the differences my friends! Enjoy it all.

[@NewfieLifestyle]

Mom also used to make this into patties and fry them out, basically the same as your mother used to do only in a patty

[@geminigirl9998]

@@heytherehowareyou1272 going to try your mom's version👍

[@NewfieLifestyle]

@geminigirl9998 awesome 👌

[@robbergstrom943]

You’ve taken me back home. A bit of crisping and Grandma would be here with me.

[@NewfieLifestyle]

I'm glad you enjoyed the video.

[@Curlyblonde]

A fried egg over easy on top of the mash would be the finishing touch. That's how we eat it in our neck of the woods here in Sunset Country in Northwestern Ontario. 🌇

[@NewfieLifestyle]

That sounds delicious

[@bonniejordan8192]

Yum from North Carolina! 😋

[@NewfieLifestyle]

I'm so glad to have you here from North Carolina!

[@ricksmith7631]

yep i remembering opening the cans, when i was done all i wanted was the key, not good for anything but i wanted that key. this dish looks so good, traditional eastern cooking and given my dad was from NB we got to enjoy some of the cuisine. Ive been to NFL a few times and if i were a millionaire id love to settle down there, this would be living.

[@NewfieLifestyle]

It's definitely a very laid-back kind of living here in Newfoundland. It's a great place to have a summer cottage.

[@terrishields1982]

Good ole memories....drinking from the garden hose in the hot summer....Just found your videos...love them!

[@NewfieLifestyle]

You're absolutely right. We had the vest childhood. Thanks for watching and being part of our community

[@matildagoyetche4686]

Very interesting that you put the corn beef right from the can. We always fry it with the onions, then mash it with the potatoes.

[@NewfieLifestyle]

You would definitely get a better flavor by frying it with the onions first.

[@EpiphAnnies]

My mom and I heat the corned beef in the pan with the onions, butter and garlic powder, once the onions are almost cooked. Then mix in the corned beef and onions with the mashed potato, along with parsley, instead of mashing it together. Either way, I love corned beef hash! 😊

[@NewfieLifestyle]

That's how a lot of people make their corned beef hash, and it sounds delicious

[@suzanneenglish3279]

My mom grew up in Newfoundland and she made it into patties and fried it in a little oil. She called them meat cakes. Yum

[@NewfieLifestyle]

I remember mom doing that as well. Definitely great memories. Thanks for sharing.

[@pansyvaughan5624]

Well, I have a can of corned beef in my cupboard and wasn't sure what to do with it, I knew I should make this dish as I'm from Nova Scotia so thanks, it's gonna be 38 to 40 degrees in a couple days so I'll be making this, cheers

[@NewfieLifestyle]

You won't be disappointed. Thanks for being part of our community

[@geminigirl9998]

I have eaten this many times growing up with Newfie parents❣️

[@NewfieLifestyle]

I'm glad I was able to bring back some memories.

[@MichelleHawco]

Corned beef patties and warm cabbage slaw....one if my new favorite recipes. I love my corned beef hash smothered in ketchup :)

[@NewfieLifestyle]

Yup, the patties are amazing. The fired potato is what makes the difference

[@nathanberry4339]

I live on narrowboat in the UK and I do a lot of cast iron cooking so it's really nice to find a channel that uses cast iron in their cooking bad growing up my dad use to regularly cook corned beef hash

[@NewfieLifestyle]

Yeah there's a totally different taste using cast iron over a woodstove. It's great to havibg you here from the Uk, and knowing your dad used to make corned beef is truly amazing.

[@nathanberry4339]

@@NewfieLifestyle he also used to do a corn beef hash out of left overs aswell IE with cabbage and onions from a Sunday roast

[@NewfieLifestyle]

That sounds really good

[@Lynn_Up_North]

Don’t forget your beef oxo package. Try it. It adds so much depth and flavor.

[@grumpyoldman7948]

I'm sure I would like this. I'm from Alabama, and I'm not saying that everyone in Alabama or the south cooks corned beef hash the way I do, but I would say it's a fairly common way to cook it. We cut the potatoes in small-medium cubes. Then fry the potatoes with diced onion added about halfway through the cooking process. Add the corned beef when the potatoes are done and browned. Put a lid on for a few minutes and the corned beef will crumble. Remove the lid and brown a little more, if desired.

[@NewfieLifestyle]

Mom has cooked it your way as well. While we were doing this video, mom said there's another way of doing this, and that's frying out the potatoes a d, then adding the corn beef. I need to give that process a try as well. Fried potato sounds even better

[@jivapetrovici8482]

Same way in Nova Scotia

[@befl1407]

I remember and I still Cook it at least 2times a month or More so easy and so Delicious

[@NewfieLifestyle]

That's amazing. Thank you for being part of our community

[@garrywilliamson8217]

My Mudder was from Mount Pearl. I grew up eating that corned beef.

[@NewfieLifestyle]

It was a regular meal back in the day.

[@bnice8940]

Hello Newfie Lifestyle! Watching from Ontario Canada. I just discovered your channel and subscribed to your amazing channel. I'm definitely going to be making this Corned Beef Hash. Sounds y-u-m-m-y! Thank you for sharing (Sandy). 😋😋

[@NewfieLifestyle]

Thanks, Sandy, for your support. Keeping watching as we continue to evolve and grow this channel into an amazing community. I'm planning to start doing weekly or bi-weekly lives starting in the fall just for the community. I'm not sure how we will do the lives, but it's something I want to start doing in order to keep my viewers connected to the channel.

Good job on a classic dish, thanks for sharing, its also got me thinking of corned beef and cabbage lol

[@NewfieLifestyle]

Thanks for watching and being part of our community. Much appreciated

[@Fenrir6Gaming]

We take our corned beef hash, and crisp it up in a skillet with some butter, and make sandwiches with it, a little American cheese (made by a Canadian company) and youre good to go.

[@NewfieLifestyle]

That sounds delicious

[@nitrampd]

Wife and I always have a can of Hereford in the pantry. I love it with mustard on a sandwich.

[@NewfieLifestyle]

That's another favorite for a lot of people.

[@sherri-iw8xq]

My nanna sautéed cabbage as well to her hash🤗

[@Shirley-k7x]

Hi Shirley from the maritimes I love watching your channel.I grew up eating alot of the meals you prepared to be honest with you i still cook like that its food that sticks to the ribs. Lol😊

[@NewfieLifestyle]

It's great to have you here. It's sad that a lot of our way of life, including recipes, are being lost with each new generation. Very sad. We had such a rich upbringing in culture, and most of it will be lost in the next few generations.

[@newfiehunter709]

We add savory to ares and fry them up into pattys

[@NewfieLifestyle]

Absolutely, can't have Patty's without savory. Only a newfie would understand

[@wendingourway]

Bringing back memories of my grandmother making a wonderful corned beef hash on the oil stove they had in the kitchen for years, even after getting electricity. Awesome stuff!!

[@NewfieLifestyle]

My grandmother had the old-fashioned woodstove in her kitchen and the meals were amazing

[@StayCoolKeto]

*We used to make something back like in England ages go, not had a CBH in so long. 2500ish sodium for the tub lol probably doesn't need added seasoning lol, but nit a huge deal over the day; higher sodium betetr than low sodium. Carbs quite high though lol! Now I feel hungry lol. stay well* 💪👍

[@NewfieLifestyle]

Yup, the sodium is crazy. We all had different lifestyles back then. We were all more active, even the children played outside, and parents worked hard for a living. Foods had different and more natural ingredients, and how times have changed.

[@kim197021]

love corn beef hash but I think its the one meal i havent had only maybe 4 times since i left home!!!

[@NewfieLifestyle]

This was the first time I had this since I was a child.

Thank you so much

[@niborselrahc4651]

I always wanted to open the can too. But I am left handed and it never ended well. I now just use my right hand as late as yesterday to open one.

[@NewfieLifestyle]

I never thought about the left-handed issue with the can. That would be different. Can you imagine seeing can corned beef in the grocery aisle for left-handed customers. That actually would be great. See how all the right-handed customers would be looking at the can with a confused look on their faces haha

[@dennisreid5192]

Looks yummy !

[@NewfieLifestyle]

Thank you 😋

[@kerijan2003]

Northern New Brunswickers also have this dish as a tradition. Not just Newfies!

[@NewfieLifestyle]

Awesome! I know this recipe or similar recipe can be from thoughtout to the US as well. It's great to see all the different places that are familiar with this dish. I spent a lot of time in NB, I used to work there, and my sister still lives there. I love NB. My parents still travel there very summer to see my sister and the grandkids.

[@janking2762]

Home made corned beef is crazy easy, you control the salt content, cheaper than canned. Beef brisket, rub with salt and spices ( pickle spices is good), leave in ziplock bag in fridge for 7-9 days, rinse, cook until tender( stovetop or pressure cooker), Cook up chopped onions, add cubed parboiled potatoes and cubed beef , cook until crusty, you are done.

[@NewfieLifestyle]

Sounds like you might have done this a few times 😆 it sounds delicious 😋

[@thestealthymaltesefalcon]

That looked yummy...from the West Coast boi.

[@NewfieLifestyle]

It was delicious

[@Janelle2120]

i grew up eating this to only difference was my mom use to fry the meat before putting it in ,and no butter but a sprinkle of pepper,i still make it today with no butter and onions and pepper only difference i do is the meat isnt cooked i just take it out of the can and add

[@hawk6dm7]

Would be great with side dishes of boiled cabbage and roasted carrots. Along with some good sourdough bred\ad.

[@NewfieLifestyle]

Sounds like a perfect meal

[@davidmartin5179]

Smother it in Ketchup and mustard pickles on the side. So delicious

[@NewfieLifestyle]

You know the special sauce of a Newfoundlander, mustard pickles 😆

[@littlebear6119]

I am 78 and my Mom was from New Brunswick; she had something similar, corned been and cabbage. The potatoes were on the side, separate. Did you ever have that?

[@robertcoffen3507]

not a fan of corn beef hash, but my mother would make corn beef soup now that i loved..

[@NewfieLifestyle]

Wow, corned beef soup. I've never heard of it, but I did hear about bologna soup and bologna gravy.

Now your talking

[@nksanbornski6687]

I don't mash my potatoes. I chop and pan fry them with the onions. I crumble the corned beef into the potatoes and continue to fry 'til heated thru .

[@NewfieLifestyle]

That's another great way of doing it, more of a fried potato dish, which I love more than boiled potatoes

[@melissalambert7615]

Mom would make this once in a while. Good winter pantry meal. Not a fan. Prefer to use leftover boiled dinner or roasted leg of lamb. You forgot to put a fried egg on top. Ha, ha!

[@woodys8018]

@@NewfieLifestyle There is corn fed beef and there is corned beef ,two different things. But no such thing as corn beef.

[@NewfieLifestyle]

We have corned fish as well, which here in Newfoundland it means cod fishing that's been socking for a few hours in a salt solution. So I ashamed the corned beef is beef that's been salted or cured and then packaged because the corned beef is extremely salted.
