The first time I made corned beef, I spent about an hour trimming the fat off before I placed it into the slow cooker. Epic fail.

I was almost in tears of frustration because it took so long to do…and I vowed never to make corned beef again. Until the following year, that is.

But, I became wiser the next time. I just plopped the corned beef right in the slow cooker, without removing the fat. And you know what? It just flaked away just by using a fork once it was ready. If you’ve never made a corned beef before, then you probably don’t know what I’m talking about. But if you have, then maybe the layer of fat on the hunk of meat frustrates you, too.

And now that St. Patrick’s Day is just around the corner, I’m getting a taste for corned beef again. And this time, I thought I’d switch it up and make a breakfast dish. And go the easier route. After all, I’m all about the easy recipes!

Tips for Making Corned Beef Hash with Eggs

  • The canned corned beef hash already contains onions and potatoes, but you’re welcome to add extra to the skillet to amp up the flavor. 
  • I prefer using green bell pepper in this recipe because its flavor holds up to the seasoned corned beef and eggs. However, you can use any color of bell pepper you’d like.
  • Once prepared, I recommend eating the corned beef and eggs immediately. The eggs don’t keep well as leftovers.
