Pulled Pork Hash

We recently had a party and my husband smoked 80 pounds of pork. While it was a big hit at the party, we did have some left over. I have been coming up with new recipes to incorporate the pulled pork leftovers into our meals and WOW has it been fun not to mention delicious! I had no idea how versatile pulled pork was and am thrilled to be able to use it up in such mouth-watering ways.

If you don’t happen to have excessive amounts of pulled pork like I do, feel free to use sausage, bacon, or hamburger in your hash. Most proteins work really well!

How to Make Hash

Growing up I refused to eat hash because the name scared me. How could anything called “hash” taste good? Boy did I miss out.

When making hash you can prepare it fresh or use leftover ingredients. Meat, roasted veggies, left-over veggies that need to be used so they don’t go bad—it all works in a hot cast iron skillet with potatoes. I used 3 kinds of peppers in addition to the onion and garlic, but you could swap out your favorite veggies. I think onions and garlic are a must, but the peppers should definitely be added based on your preferences. Other great options are mushrooms, corn, spinach, brussel sprouts, carrots, or even apples!

Most folks use corned beef in hash with a few fried eggs on top. But in reality, hash can be any combination of meat and potatoes. Learning how to make breakfast hash is easy because hash can basically involve anything. We find ourselves making it for any meal, not just breakfast!

Cheesy Hash

I stuck with the basics in this recipe and add cheddar cheese, but you could incorporate any of your favorites! We also love gruyere, muenster, jack, and pepper jack cheeses. You can add as little or as much as you would like! Or, if you are looking for a healthier option, omit the cheese altogether.

Potatoes in Hash

This recipe calls for 5 large potatoes boiled and diced. I used peeled red potatoes and I love how they stand up to boiling. I diced my potatoes into large cubes, but some folks (my husband!) prefer them into much smaller cubes. If you want really crispy potatoes smaller cubes is the way to go. If you want to save some time in this recipe you can use frozen cubed potatoes which are called “Diced Hash Potatoes” or “Southern Style Hash Brown Potatoes” in your frozen food section of the grocery store. And yes, you can certainly opt for traditional hash browns, which are grated potatoes.

Want a REALLY fun twist? You can make this recipe over french fries and serve it for dinner!

Ingredients

• 1 tablespoon vegetable oil, or EVOO
• 1 red onion, diced
• 1 orange pepper, diced
• 1/4 cup red pepper, diced
• 2 cloves garlic, diced
• 1 cup pulled pork
• 5 large potatoes, boiled and then diced into cubes (peeling optional)
• 2 teaspoons paprika
• 1 teaspoon kosher salt
• 1 teaspoon pepper
• 1 cup cheddar cheese
• 3 large eggs
• scallions and jalapeno for garnish, optional

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 375°F.
2. Set 12-inch skillet over medium heat. Add oil.
3. Add onion and peppers and heat for about 3-5 minutes.
4. Add in garlic and cook for an additional 3-5 minutes.
5. Add the pulled pork and stir well.
6. Add paprika, salt, and pepper and stir, making sure everything is fully incorporated.

7. Add potatoes and stir. Try to make sure that there are some potatoes on the bottom, touching the pan. Let potatoes crisp for at least 5 minutes, up to 10 minutes. (Depending on how crispy you like your potatoes.)

8. Make 3 wells in the hash (I used a soup ladle) and then sprinkle half the cheese (1/2 cup) over the hash.
9. Crack 3 eggs into the wells. (Add more salt&pepper if you want)

10. Carefully place the hot skillet into the oven and bake for up to 10 minutes. (At 5 minutes the whites should be cooked but the yolk will be very runny, at 10 minutes the yolks should only be a little runny. Adjust to your tastes.)

11. Carefully remove skillet from oven and sprinkle with remaining cheese. Garnish with scallions and jalapeno.

12. Serve immediately.
