- It's not everyone's favorite, but if you like canned corned beef, you probably can't get enough of the stuff. And if you don't like it? Maybe you just haven't ever tried the right kind. While canned corned beef originally was created out of necessity as a kosher substitute for Spam to feed soldiers, it quickly became a pantry staple in the U.S., as well as in countries like Jamaica and the Philippines.
Something that popular has to be pretty good, but some brands most assuredly stand out from the pack, for both good and bad. These are canned corned beef brands, ranked from worst to best.

Which brand is your favorite?
Palm Corned Beef ~ Product of New Zealand!
Puefoods Corned beef, product of the Philippines, available in some Asian stores in the U.S.
Suicides
Hereford, by a long shot.
🏆Oxt & Palm 🐂 when fried with onion 🌰🥘 with eggs 🥚 Sunnyside up 🍳 combination so delicious . 😋🐂🥘🍳🍞🍚🍶👍🏆🌏🌎🌍🌐
You missed out the brand PaLM. That is the best it actually has chunks of beef in the can. Its popular in the Pacific Islands, NZ and australia.
Palm is also very popular in the Philippines although it is an imported brand and more expensive. The consistency is more of shredded meat than ground mush which is what Filipino corned beef is like.
Agreed. Palm should be on this list.
Definitely a favorite here in Hawaii
@@tommys2077 yep. Often on sale at Long's.
@@tommys2077 Conrned Beef and Taro in coconut cream bro. I love it. haha I eat that here is Sydney, but my aussie mates turn their nose up at it.
One of my English mates said "I wont feed that to my dog." I said " YOU FUCKIN BETTER NOT!!" hahaha I hide spam and corned beef in her bed she throws them at me...hahaha Its good stuff bro.
i love canned corned beef. imo it is a very underrated food. i mean i get why people love Bacon, and i do as well, but i think corned beef deserves to be up there too.
Never eaten it. How do you prepare it? Would like to try it.
@@namvet1968 pro tip: fry some in bacon fat and eat with over medium eggs.
Very versatile food, can cook it too 😊
I’ve never had canned corned beef but I just stacked up on a bunch of Hereford for an emergency. Glad to see I picked a good one
I've never noticed much difference between brands here in the UK. These days they all seem to be from Brazil and are good quality. I much prefer them chilled rather than warmed up.
i'm happy that a philippine brand made it to your list but there are two other brands that are at par if not better than your choice and these are purefoods and delimonde.
everyone in my family calls me crazy for my favorite corned beef hash. I have just forwarded this video to them all as you have given me validation. Libby's has and always will be the best. Thank You!
Here in Britain, Fray Bentos seems to be the most popular brand..delicious cold from the fridge or hot corned beef hash..
Yes I grew up eating libbys corned beef on white bread with a good smear of mayo...cold or hot, it was great! I haven't eaten it in years but after watching this video I'm going out tomorrow and buy a dozen cans just to have it on hand in case I get the urge for a Libby corned beef sammich and wash it down with an ice cold pabst blue ribbon beer! (Probably at 3 a.m.)
Fair play sir
The best!
I'm sitting in Sydney right now, I live here. Never heard of Ox & Palm corned beef. When I was at sea on the ocean liners it was well known that Australian corned beef came way down the list of desirability. Having eaten corned beef for nigh on 80 years I can say that cold is best. Hot only with potatoes, never on its own.
Tinned corned beef is not salt junk, the sea term for corned beef, which is basically salt pumped (pickled) or just salted beef, which is better than tinned if one wants hot food. Though both tinned and salt junk are great cold.
i think the Australia’s Hampers corned beef is the closest to the US’ Libby in term of taste and texture… really love them both
I like corned beef. Tried most of them. Like them all. Its not a steak. Its canned corned beef. Always good with eggs and toast. Was fun to watch. Great video
Hellaby's corned beef (reduced fat) has been our favourite brand for over 50 years. We love slabs of it on buttered white bread (or toast) with Watties tomato sauce and slices of red onion, all washed down with a hot cup of Twinings English Breakfast tea....just delicious! Cheers from Aotearoa New Zealand.
sounds decadent! Will have to give it a go
That sounds amazing!!
Yes Hormel, Mary Kitchen corned beef hash is my favorite. Add a little, pepper a bit of Lee & Perins but must’ve hot
I always loved Libby's corn beef hash and still do.
Broadcast was my favorite growing up. I never see it in stores anymore though
Same here. If I have to buy canned corned beef I'm going with Libby's.
Libby's! Well worth the price!
@@Desda1000 of course it helped that my mom's name was Libby!
Philippine dish, fry lots garlic chopped, then add 2 onions chopped. Finally when they have melted, add a can of cornbreef until it breaks down then add tomatoes chopped 3 to 4, cook until all breaks down to a nice chunky sauce, if gets too dry add water. put on top of rice and enjoy. I add hot sauce and a dash of maggi seasoning on top and mix
philippine food is generally rubbish
Thank you for this video
Hereford is the best! Stick in the fridge before opening because that makes it easier to remove from the can and slice. I love it cold in a sandwich even if it's the only thing in the sandwich with mustard or Mayo depending on your taste.
Found Hereford varies wildly can to can. Sometimes it is really good, other times it.would make a hotdog sick. If they could work that out it could be great.
beef from Brazil?
@@elwynjones763 Yes and that is what happened to Juan Valdez.🤣
@@elwynjones763 Yes it's made from the genuine Juan Valdez buttocks.
You mentioned Argentina corned beef which is a Filipino brand but it's not remotely the best corned beef in the Philippines. That distinction goes to Purefoods corned beef. Like other local corned beef brands in the Philippines, the consistency is not as mushy like in Libby's or Hereford. Here the consistency is more meaty like shredded pastrami and has a lot more juice. Purefoods has that and overall better flavor and meatiness. A close second is Delimondo. Argentina is considered of lower quality here, a more affordable, cheaper option.
Yun kasi ang afford ng karamihan. Yung purefoods at Delimondo mahal
Stop making issues, if Argentina Corn Beef is chosen? So be it. Why comparing with Pure Food's because you are paid by the company?
Thank goodness somebody spoke out and represented the Pearl of the Orient Seas; agreed with everything you replied. Thanks for replying.
Sorry, Delimondo is #1, hands down
Exactly true...
Delimondo, Highlands Angus cornef beef of the Philippines, and Palm corned beef of New Zealand hands down.
Well done. Thank you.
Worth to try in your review the Phillippine-made Delimondo Ranch Style Corned Beef. Good to know a Philippine brand Argentina Corned Beef made it to your list. In the 80's there is another good tasting Philippine made corned beef, the Rodeo Corned Beef, not sure if it is still available coz I haven't seen them in the grocery shelves anymore.
My favorite brand of Corned Beef is Libby's, bar none. I enjoy it skillet-fried to a crisp, with some sauteed onions and minced garlic served on top of a bed of steamed white rice. This is what I call a Filipino man's idea of comfort food. Yummy! 😋🌽🍚🐄❤️
Now THAT sounds really good! 😛
Thanks for recipe. Sounds yummy. It’s also good like mostly shown. Fried up and add eggs near end. Toasted rye bread. Great any time of day.
@@Aztec339 And what about thick or thin cut sliced Corned Beef with Swiss cheese, Sauerkraut and Russian or Thousand Island dressing? A classic Ruben sandwich on toasted Rye bread. Yummy! 🤔😋♥️
Ox and Palm recall was a technical importation issue- the importer into USA did not submit cans to FDA for inspection- they sent them on to retailers. Ox and Palm is an excellent product. Way better than the usual crap on the shelves and well worth the money. At the Asian stores you can get 1/2 size cans which are very handy
Really good to know thank you
I'll agree wholeheartedly with Libby's canned corned beef being the best. But, at $7.99 a can, it's definitely a treat. I haven't tried libby's hash, though. I usually go with Brookdale from Aldi for both hash and corned beef. i also like mary kitchen and Meijer's store brand.
I had some of the Meijer's hash mixed with a little bit of the Libby's corned beef for lunch and it was excellent. i want to try some of the brands they listed on here that I've never heard of like Grace and Jamaican country Style. I've never seen them in the stores so I guess I'll have to shop the Net for them.
Love Australia’s Hamper. It’s the only one I like
When I was very poor I used to buy this stuff that was canned in Brazil and cost only $2/lb. It did not taste like corned beef, it was very fishy. I called it "corned fish". I would get two weeks out of a can, just a little bit in a bowl of rice
What corned beef do you recommend?
I buy Hormel's Mary Kitchens or Libby's. And I'd have to say that both are good. I generally stick to these two brands because I am familiar with their consistency in taste. I learned at an early age that bargain brands do not do well when it comes to corned beef. But, I will say that I have an Aldi's up the block from me and I will give Brookdale a try. I like it cooked crispy with 3 eggs over the top with OJ for breakfast or Pepsi for lunch or dinner.
Thanks So Much 😍
Love Libby's Corned Beef!!! My Dad loved it since WWII. With diced potatoes and onions with toast and eggs fried or scrambled. Just perfect. I do it myself as an occasional treat.. 😋😋😋😋❤❤❤❤
butis it Brazilian beef?
@@elwynjones763 Good beef! I love it still...
I grew up eating Libby's corned beef and so far I tried other brands as well. Agree with the #1 but my #2 is Purefoods corned beef.
Locally I can get Hormel Mary Kitchen and Libby's Corned Beef Hash but I've found that at Smart and Final stores I can get their store brand First Street Corned Beef Hash. The flavor is really good and it's less fatty than the other two I mention here. And it's about $1 less per can.
I really appreciate throwing in Joel from MST for a quick "It Stinks" lol
In terms of corned beef hash, you missed Mary Kitchen, which is very good. The only corned beef I can find here in the wasteland of NW CT is Libby's, but the last can was disappointing. I will have to check out the Aldi brand, but our local store is currently featuring mostly empty shelves. Very useful video.
Mary kitchen is great it's actually a hormel brand
Clover Valley (Dollar General brand) is great with cabbage... add some bacon to make it out of the world. Underwood's is good on sandwiches too.
The Clover Valley version of SPAM is great too. A tad less salty and we think better flavored. My wife had nightshade allergies, which includes potatoes. SPAM has potato starch in it. CV does not. Got a great deal on some cabbage at the local (small) grocery and there is a Dollar General just up the hill. I'll have to grab some of the CV Corned Beef if they have some. I've found quite a few of the Clover Valley branded foods are pretty good.
I'm a Filipino, and considering Argentina as a good corned beef is mind-boggling. It's the worst corned beef I have ever tasted. It's too salty, too watery, and the actual texture of this brand is remotely far from what I would expect from a good corned beef.
True. It's only super affordable that's why a lot of Filipinos are buying it but when it comes to taste, it's not a legit corned beef for me.
I buy my corned beef at the Dollar General Store. Their Clover Valley brand is a product of Brazil, and tastes really good. Cooked beef, beef, salt, sugar and sodium nitrate. I just hope that the second ingredient is cooked too.
Swift brand corn beef from Dollar General Stores, that is made in Brazil, is the closest thing I found to the chunk style corned beef that I grew up with in the 50s and 60s.
Aldi's Brookdale corned beef hash is great with eggs on toast. Next best Mary Kitchen corned beef hash is excellent too but nearly costs twice.
As a kid in the Fifties, and teen in the Sixties here in Western Canada, by far my favourite was Boston Corned Beef from Australia. It was common where I lived then. Disappeared from the radar some time between 1966 and 1988... not sure why. I loved the texture and the taste. No brand today matches it. Anyone have a clue what happened to it? Wish it was still available, unchanged.
Very interesting
🥰🥰🥰 My favorite corned beef is Hampers, but I have tried Hydale from Aldis. Reg from QLD Australia.
I love Corned Beef Hash and eggs and so when I was in Aldi I bought the Brookdale Corned Beef Hash ($1.59/15oz can). I was not prepared for what happened next. I decided to make corned beef hash and eggs for breakfast the next day however, when I opened the can of Brookdale brand I was turned off. It was gray making me think air had gotten into the can. I emptied the whole can onto a plate and it was pink and gray. I took a picture and went to Aldi and showed the manager. He gave me another can to replace the one I opened however, two days later when I opened the can, the same! This was shocking as it is made by Hormel. So, I have been forced to go back to the expensive Mary Kitchen Hash ($2.99/15oz can), made by Hormel.
Eeeek! Glad I've never had that happen. but it does make some sense that you might get a bad can. After all, most store brands are usually the cast offs of prominent name brands...inferior or second batches, I'm guessing. but yeah, that would definitely turn me off.
Ox&Palm on rice with egg is one of my wife's favorites. She is Phillipina and grew up eating corned beef. I prefer crisp corned beef loaf, only really available around St. Pattie's Day.
I just had Brookdale
cornbeef 🌽 🍖 yesterday from Aldi wow dam good😋👍 going back for more
I like the Libby's Roast beef hash. Once I bought a can of corned beef hash and it had the taste buds of the cow's tongue still on it.
As a Jamaican I am shocked to hear anyone that is non Jamaican talk about bully beef! The absolute best brand is hereford then Grace
You are right but l find hormel to be better than grace
Eve is better . Grace is too fatty. Its like pottted meat
Here in Trinidad I love rainbow cornbeef
Non Jamaican? Jamaica is not the only country in the Caribbean. We all eat corn beef. Yes I’m shocked they’re even talking about it. 😁. I usually get Libby’s. I’m gonna try Grace.
@@joanneclegg939 , Grace is a excellent brand.. Libby’s is second for me…If available, try any of the other Grace products (eg.) pepper sauce,ketchup,spices,can Ackee,can coconut milk & powdered , just too many to list. Anything with a Grace label is very good. Not familiar with the Jamaican Country Style brand. Never had or seen there products.They might be based out of Miami,Florida, started in the 1980s. I left Jamaica 🇯🇲 in the 1980s. Eat on my fellow foodie!😊
In France, most of the time I can only find Hereford brand Corned Beef and it's good. Sometime Exeter one can be found because they make a halal version.
I just checked my pantry and I only have an unbranded can of corned beef, simply labeled "corned beef". I bought it from Lidl or a discount store, I can't really remember, but I checked the back and it was made in France by Covi SAS... the parent company of Hereford. But in the end, corned beef is not really popular in France.
My ears pricked up when you got to the Aldi can called Brookdale in America. Now I live in the UK and their corned beef is called Bramwells. Do you think it's the same product as the Brookdale in the States or is it completely different?
I use Mary Kitchen sausage hash fried crisp it is delicious. The corned beef is great too.
I will save you time. Libby’s is hands down the best. Been eating it for years.
How do you prepare it?
I haven't eating canned corned beef for decades, but in my days in Hawaii, Libby's was the best. It was a product of Argentina. Sweet onions, poi and Libby's corned beef was " da bomb".
Libby is what I eat
Was it from Argentina? Im from Argentina and you wont find such product here, maybe all of the production is exported but that would be weird.
@@Coyote27981 This was before 1950. Libby's shifted to Made in Brazil some years later.
can't believe argentina made it on the list. It does taste good but i'd put it in 3rd place . I prefer Delimondo - garlic and chili). But I'm still happy that it's here.
you had a pod people segment. that was my favorite segment. bees on pie burning rubber tires.
Essentially you told me what I have always believed, Corn beef should come in nice big slices with cabbage and boiled potatoes and beer on St. Patty's Day or between two pieces of rye bread, Swiss cheese, sauerkraut, and thousand island dressing or horseradish. It should not be run through a meat grinder with potatoes and added gunk looking and tasting like dog food by any company.
ALDI’s Brookdale brand is really good and it’s a lot less expensive than Libby’s.
Hormel Corned Beef Hash is my go to weekend breakfast with eggs on the side. ( Heated Up ) 👌
Del Mondo & Argentina one of the best quality corned beef.
As for Exeter, they'd also changed the label to a more modern version, complete with an illustration of the meat content. The copycats hadn't gotten the menu though.
You lost me at Libbys. And I can’t believe Palm and Delimondo weren’t on the list. Clearly this list needs to be updated
Agree with Hereford and Libby's. My go to brands when it comes to corned beef once in a while. :)
Great value and Brookdale hash are made by Hormel and both very good with sunny side up eggs.
The Underwood spread is like a salt toothpaste, and I would choose the mythical toothpaste!!
Tried dozens of major brands worldwide, but I think the one I tried in my vacation in the Philippines is the best one… Purefoods, more pricey here in the States but it’s worth it…
thanks for this and i will try the Aldi as I have a new Aldi open by me but do not know the brand they sell.
i tried the Aldi brand but it was not nice, it tasted greasy and was very mushy.
I find Brookdale on line with prices ranging from $14.00 per can to 3 for $25.24. As these are 12 oz. cans, the per pound cost exceeds that of fresh corned beef sold at sandwich shops in my area. But those national brands of corned beef hash are indeed quite good!!!
OX & PALM is made by Heinz Australia. The red label round squat cans are quite good and chunky style. The "squarish" cans Americans are used to are like the video says, but I do find them better than the Brazilian and other South American brands.
MIGHT be made BY Heinz Australia, but it's not made IN Oz! Only sold in PNG, so my guess is made IN PNG, from Aussie meat!
I live in Toronto. You can get most of these corned beef brands in the grocery stores here (you might need find the appropriate ethnically oriented store).
Funnily enough, in 50 years I have never seen Libby's corned beef.
Hereford and Grace are quite common.
Hereford is my favourite from when I was a kid.
Funny that, ‘cause at that time in Canada you could buy Libby’s baked beans and a host of other canned items.
Mmmmm Libbys beans!
I like Purefoods corned beef and Del Mundo corned beef.. they taste better than any other corned beef i tried.
Corned beef is a staple during hurricane season in the Caribbean and we cook ours. Libby's and Exeter.
omg! Argentina is kne of the worst tastimg corned beef in the Philippimes! the best are Delimondo and Purefoods
I love Libby's corned beef hash
I love Great Values and Aldi's corned beef hash!
In the 60's my mother worked at a factory where they had to tap cans of corned beef left over from the war with screw drivers. Some of them completely disintergrated, the ones that were ok had the labels scraped off and Fray Bentos one put on.
Mmm can't go wrong with corned beef on rye
Goya has a very strong moral compass, and their quality reflects that. Didn't know that had corned beef but I will buy it.
Goya supports trump, no thanks
@@barbarajohnson3876 Trump knows about meat, memba "Trump Steaks" he's also fat, so he must know something.
I sometimes buy the Hormel corned beef hash but never tried it with a sunny-side egg before. What is the best way to prepare this together?
Do you first fry the corned beef hash in cooking oil in a frying pan and put the egg on top of the corned beef hash in and above the the hash already in the pan? Or do you cook (fry) the hash until it is completely browned and THEN put the egg in the pan on top of the already cooked hash?
Either way! But if you want the egg over easy you'll have to do it separately. Or at least it's much easier that way without breaking the yolk.
Corned beef even if cooked from corned or salted brisket does have a certain amount of beef fat. If cooking with canned corn beef the main error is adding to much of additional oils when cooking with onions and cabbage. Chilling a can before opening to eat straight out of a can is another tip, as the excess fat can be isolated. Before spam from the US was made available in WW2 the main canned meet supplied to British and Commonwealth troops as combat rations was corned beef. The bully beef and biscuit (Hard tack in thinned biscuit style) was a field ration staple along with what ever was available plus the ubiquitous vitamin C tablets.
The only one I know is Hereford. It's the only one we get. I live in Canada
It's the best.
Grace is also in Canada, Great value too.
I moved from Calif. to the Philippines 2010. Canned corned beef wasn't very big in Calif. but here in the Philippians it's one of the most common foods. I haven't tried Argentina, maybe I should, but my favorite has been Virginia, but Pure Foods was also good.
Also try Deli Mundo
Canned corned beef was always available in CA. Still is, you must have lived in a very remote area not to have seen it readily available.
does Argentins still produce corned beef from its own cattle?
I have tried the blind taste test between Libby's, Hereford, and Walmart. All three have an identical stamp on the metal top which states it's a product of Brazil and contains the same identifying information, product and official inspection numbers. They taste the same to me and have the same texture. Save your money next time and buy the best priced of what you find on the shelf the day you're looking for it. Oh, and if you're making your own hash with it try substituting boiled turnip root for the potatoes. Uhm good.
The SIF stamp on The cans means Federal Inspection Service - (Serviço de Inspeção Federal) , and its mandatory for all The food producers to stamp it on products here in Brazil. Note that The only thing that Will change is The number on this stamp that refers to the company code.
Marrys Kitchen .. Absolute Top
It is unfortunate that this blog deals in product largely available East of the Rockies and Mississipi River Confusing too is that most of the cans are products of Brazil; further there is a difference between corned beef hash and corned beef in a can and why they are grouped together is not especially helpful as there are other brannds of corned beef available; I have two different ones in my pantry
Hamper brand Australian made corned beef is the best I have ever tasted. It is in a yellow tin for anyone in oz. I have tryed every other brand that is available in Australia and they are all well a let down and made in Brazil.
Ooohh yesss!! Australian brand Hamper is my favorite and by far the best👍. I used to like Palm but Hamper took it to another level for me😋
Thanks!!!!!!!😎
Delimondo and Purefoods Corned Beef brands. These two should be ranked as among the world's best.
Ox& palm are the best canned corned beef ever!!
Ox and Palm, Palm, are my top favorites. Both have more beef fat than the other brands, but since I love beef fat, it is no problem for me. I personally would not trade these 2 brands for any other brand/brands...but to each his own.
Thank you
Ox & Palm is a staple for Pacific Islanders
Purefoods corned beef from the Philippines is the best corned beef I’ve ever had, it can be bought at some Asian stores in the U.S. 👍👍
Stop crying..let the content alone.
My good fellow you nailed it!! My self has been consuming Libby’s corned beef since about 1937, and today I still By it by the case.
I do have one minor comment, the suggestion that Spam doesn’t compare. Spam is Spam corned beef is corned beef. During WW2, Spam was a very welcome item on the table, it all depends on the preparation . I also buy Spam by the case, you either like it or you don’t.
You ought to try some of the British brands, such as Prince's and Fray Bentos.
Very nice to see Grace cornbeef here. Jamaican cornbeef is top tier stuff
I tried Ox and Palm corned beef, discovered I'd bought a can of fat, threw it out (all six cans of the bilge). My personal favorite is Hereford's low sodium version. I hate salty food, particularly meat, so this is perfect.
A Can of lipos whole shiat
Herfoord is the best
If you do your research you'll find most of those including Libbys and Great Value at Walmart are from Brazil. They are in the same Can and have the exact same stamp on the bottom of the can. Over 90% of canned corned beef is made in Brazil.
That's my understanding of the situation too.... But...Pray tell, how come I cannot find Corned Beef in Chile...."Just down the road" from Brazil?
When their product is widely known all around the world?
The SIF stamp on The cans means Federal Inspection Service - (Serviço de Inspeção Federal) , and its mandatory for all The food producers to stamp it on products here in Brazil. Note that The only thing that Will change is The number on this stamp that refers to the company code.
I like the great value brand. I keep several tins stored down in the basement for emergency food storage. I think I bought each for like $2.50.
Libby's corned beef and Mary Kitchen hash have been standards in our household for years. I like both of them frazzled well in a frying pan, and when I want to give my arteries a workout, I fry them with bacon. Salty but tasty!
I Love Libby's brand Corned Beef, I and onions and potatoes and I Sunnyside eggs. Delicious for breakfast!!
I make m.y own hash add par boiled potatoes and onions with Sunnyside up eggs
PALM corned beef is the best tasting corned beef there is...it's from New Zealand.
🏆Ox & Palm are my favorite corned beef 🐂 and it's pretty expensive and are so delicious with fried onion 🌰 🥘 with eggs 🥚 Sunnyside up 🍳.😋🥘🍳🍞🍚👍
For real, i already had a clue the review was coming from someone that doesn't know what good canned corned beef is, especially after she said Libby's is good,🤣
It's a luxury here in Papua New Guinea 🇵🇬 Super expensive but people still buy it 😁
have to agree with the Hereford ...really good with cabbage MMMM
