There's nothing like a Reuben Sandwich! Hot, crunchy, savory, melty, what a treat. This is such a good way to use your corned beef leftovers. This sandwich is built, not just slapped together. There is the right way to make it and then you can always modify it to your liking. I'll show you what I like and how to build it.
Oh man! This is a great way to enjoy corned beef leftovers! I confess, I have never made corned beef hash. Like me, you may not know how a recipe will turn out, especially if you have never tried it. I am always optimistic at the outset and sometimes it turns out well and sometimes it doesn't. Since corned beef hash is such a great way to use up leftovers I really wanted to see if I could make it and here it is!
And yes, that is a homemade buttermilk biscuit you see on the plate in the photo above. Yes, it was tasty, and if I had the perfect recipe, I would share it with you. My mom made the world's best biscuits and I have been on a long quest to re-create that tender morsel of perfection. I'll let you know when I get there...
Now back to these lovely leftovers: this recipe is flexible and that means you can add more and different ingredients or cook your eggs separately or spice it up or tone it down to your liking.

Every year, corned beef is traditionally served for Saint Patrick's Day on March 17th. As much as I love tradition, I love a bargain even more! If you like corned beef, you can find it for a very low price the week before Saint Patrick's Day. I buy several and freeze the extras for later in the year.
Here is a very easy, basic dinner of corned beef, onions, potatoes, carrots and cabbage. It might also be called a New England boiled dinner, except, this is California and I put it all in a slow cooker.
Use your slow cooker for these types of meals and you'll not only save yourself time and effort, but it's economical as well. Next time, substitute a cut of roast beef or pork, instead of the corned beef, and you'll have a hot, delicious dinner waiting for you at the end of the day!
