Definition of Corned Beef Hash
Although it can technically be made of a combination of any finely chopped ingredients, hash is often a mixture of beef (often leftovers of corned beef or roast beef), onions, potatoes, and spices that are mashed together into a coarse, chunky paste, and then cooked, either alone, or with other ingredients.
In many locations in the U.S., corned beef hash is served primarily as a breakfast food on restaurant menus and home cuisine, often served with eggs and toast (or biscuits), and occasionally fried potatoes (hashbrowns, home fries, etc). The dish is usually known as corned beef hash with eggs, or corned beef hash & eggs. Alternatives of the dish use roast beef hash. (see Types of fries)
Alternatively, in the southern United States, the term "hash" refers to a blend of leftover pork from a barbecue mixed with barbecue sauce and served over rice. It is a common side dish at barbecue restaurants and pig pickins in South Carolina and Georgia.
