It can be frozen too. Funnily enough, it always tastes better too when left, I usually cook it the nite before & warm through when I get in from work. Hubby n kids love it.

Does anyone know If I can freeze fresh corned beef slices from the butchers? I bought some to do a hash with but havn't had the time to make it yet.

Can I pop them in the freezer?

I've frozen corned beef sandwiches for DH's lunch on several occasions and he hasn't complained.

I've just pulled a chunk of corned beef out of the freezer - it's fine. Mr TM will open a can to make himself sandwiches and then leave the rest in the fridge. I'll just pop it inthe freezer if I don't want to use it. It will still be fine for sandwiches - but hash will cover a multitide of sins anyway IYKWIM

Hi All

Does anyone know if it's OK to freeze corned beef ? Hubby always buys large tins and then the remains get left in the fridge till I chuck them out. I'm not a fan, but he likes corned beef sarnies and hash. Does the texture/ taste deteriorate in the freezer?

I have frozen corned beef hash for ages and that's always been fine (but then the corned beef has already been cooked)
