Leftover corned beef can become delightful, delicious dishes with these recipes. Here’s how to remake those leftovers.
Making corned beef and cabbage for St. Patrick’s Day? Awesome. And when you are all done with the freshly made meat, potatoes, cabbage and carrots, save some for later too. Leftover corned beef can be repurposed into so many other craveworthy dishes.
Hint: If you love corned beef, pick up an extra or two at the store this week and store them in the freezer. The uncooked corned beef will be good for 6-8 months in the freezer (and is cheapest and most available at this time of year).
Speaking of those leftovers, pack them up and store in an airtight container in the fridge. They’ll last in there for 4-5 days. In terms of how to store them, it’s okay to store the cooked meat uncut if you prefer. Cooled corned beef can be easier to cut into slices and cubes after cooling, I find.
If you aren’t going to use the corned beef leftovers in a few days, they can also be frozen. For best results, slice or dice them before freezing, depending on how you plan to use your leftovers. This will allow you to easily defrost and use the leftovers in the future.
So what can you do with these droolworthy leftovers? Let me show you a few options.
