Fried bologna sandwiches??? I thought I was the only one that did that. I use mongollian fire oil in the skillet with a little butter, to cook the bologna
Fried summer sausage is great too, takes out a bit of the fat and gets crispy...
I've tried bologna, but not summer sausage. Going to try it out this weekend!
If you like pan fried Bologna and Taylor pork roll you should try pan frying some Lebanon Bologna either the "double smoked? or the "sweet" kind
Since reading this thread and trying Mary's Kitchen back in January, I've had it no less then twice week ever since. I'm the only one in the house that eats it, so I usually have half a can with 3 eggs on top on back to back days. I've had cravings for it and used it as a late night snack on occasion. :bigsmyl2:
Can't get enough of it...why did it take me 47 years to discover this stuff?
I took the plunge and made some this weekend after always hearing my dad and grandpa talk about it...it was like the biscuits and gravy epiffany all over again...why did I wait so long? I found a recipe and so I canned 14 pints of it saturday night. I took the scraps that didn't fit in the canner and threw them in the instant pot and then Sunday morning fried everything up it was supposed to be a double batch... just made for a really good sized breakfast. I think I'll find out how the canned stuff turned out this weekend!
This isn't as hard as it looks. It is, hands down, the best corned venison (or beef) recipe I've ever had. If you try it, please tell me if you liked it!
Corned Venison (Beef) Hash with Poached Eggs
Ingredients Hash:
1 cup diced boiled red-skinned potatoes
1 cup colcannon (mashed potatoes with steamed cabbage onion and bacon)
2 cups diced cooked corned venison (corned beef is ok too)
1/4 cup corned venison cooking liquid or chicken broth
1/2 medium yellow onion - grated
1/2 clove garlic, mashed
1 tablespoon chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
1 tablespoon whole-grain mustard
1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
Pinch nutmeg
Freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
4 cups cold water
1/2 cup distilled white vinegar
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
Directions
In a large bowl, mash 1 cup of the potatoes with a fork. Add the remaining potatoes, corned venison (beef), cooking liquid, onion, garlic, mustard, parsley, thyme, and nutmeg. Season generously with pepper and mix well. Store in the refrigerator overnight or at least 3 hours.
Preheat a large well-seasoned cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1/4 cup of the butter and heat. When the foaming subsides, add the hash mixture and cook, stirring, for 30 seconds. Using a spatula, press the mixture down into a cake the size of the skillet. Cook, shaking the skillet occasionally, until the hash begins to brown, about 4 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium and continue cooking, shaking the skillet to loosen the hash occasionally, until the underside is browned and crusty, about 6 minutes more. To flip the hash, set a plate the size of the skillet on top of the pan. Invert the pan so the hash falls on to the plate as an intact cake. Invert the hash onto another plate, cooked-side up. Return the skillet to the medium-high heat; add the remaining 1 tablespoon butter. When the foaming subsides, slide the hash into the skillet cooked-side up. Cook, shaking the skillet occasionally, for 3 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium and cook, shaking the skillet occasionally, until the underside is browned and crispy, about 5 minutes more.
Poached Eggs:
Set up for poaching the eggs: Combine the water, vinegar, and salt in a large skillet and bring to a gentle simmer.
While the corned beef hash is cooking, crack an egg into a cup and carefully slide it into the hot poaching liquid. Quickly repeat with all the eggs. Poach the eggs, turning them occasionally with a spoon, until the whites are firm, or to the desired degree of doneness, about 3 to 5 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, remove the eggs and transfer to a kitchen towel. Lightly dab the eggs with the towel to remove any excess water. Divide the hash among plates and top with the poached eggs.
Serve immediately.
again I'm in the minority but never developed a taste for it
This popped up again, so I'll throw in me $.02 again.
I come from a Family of German Jew's mixed with Irish & Scots. So I grew up on REAL HOMEMADE CORNED BEEF. It was a monthly staple, Corned Beef with potatoes & carrots. Then CB sammiches w/Mustard for lunch the next day. Then Hash & eggs on Sat morn.
We had a jar of mayo in the back of the fridge, reserved for egg and/or chicken salad sammiches. And of course Turkey sammiches at Thanksgiving.
My Dad always brought cans of MARY KITCHEN CORNED BEEF HASH on fishing,hunting,shooting trips.
The REAL STUFF fried with poached eggs on top at home. The canned M K in a skillet with 4-6eggs mixed in at camp. Quicky breakfast and go. Still tasted great.
60yrs later I still make the canned stuff the same way.
Pickleing our own CORNED BEEF died with my Grandmother's. But I still make my own CB HASH from leftovers whenever it boil up a prepackaged CB from the supermarket.
Never had any but the canned stuff. Dad used to fry patties of it and some fried eggs. It was good, bit a little harsh on the back of my throat. I always took some when I went on an overnight fishing trip....it seems my buddy and I always ate better down by the lake.....
After reading this most informative thread I think I have the universal recipe for corned beef hash.
1. Get some corned beef.
2. Find some other stuff you're not afraid to eat.
3. Mix it up
4. Fry it.
5 Enjoy.

Fried gold potatoes, red onions, corned beef, La Victoria Salsa Brava.
Ate at a place in Northern Wisconsin, Woodruff, at a place called Tulas. Probably the best CB hash I have had. They used hashbrowns, cooked a bit crisp, with onions too. The CB they used was excellent.
