The BEST Southern Style Hash Recipe

Jessie Thompson
I know the name "HASH" doesn't sound very appetizing, right? But that couldn't be farther from the truth. It's a true "meat and taters" dish, and it brings back so many childhood memories for me. And no matter what anyone else has told you, this is the BEST Southern Style Hash Recipe for Two! My mamaw's original recipe uses leftover pot roast or deer steak and cooks that down with fried potatoes and onions. Top it with thick gravy or ketchup, and you have the PERFECT SOUTHERN meal.

Equipment

  • 1 Large Cast Iron Skillet

Ingredients
  

  • 3 Medium Russett Potatoes chopped
  • 6 oz. cooked deer steak or pot roast small pieces
  • 1/2 medium yellow onion sliced
  • 1 cup water
  • 3 tablespoons avocado oil or olive oil
  • Seasoned Salt to taste I like to use Tony's
  • black pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • The first thing you need to do is place the cast iron skillet over medium heat and add the oil to it.
  • Second, add the chopped potatoes and onion slices to the cast iron skillet and arrange them in an even layer.
  • Third, sprinkle the salt and pepper over the potatoes and onions.
  • Next, allow the potatoes and onions to cook and develop a crust on the bottom before stirring them around.
  • Once you have stirred the potatoes, arrange them in an even layer, cover the skillet with a lid, and let the part of the potatoes and onions that is sitting on the bottom of the pot/skillet develop a crust. (If the potatoes are drying out, add enough water to create steam before placing the lid back on the skillet.)
  • Then, stir the potatoes and onions again and arrange in another even layer in the cast iron skillet.
  • Keep doing this until most potatoes and onions have developed color and crisp and are cooked through.
  • Next, add your leftover pot roast or deer steak meat to the potatoes, onions, and gravy.
  • Once the meat is warmed through, remove it from the heat.
  • Finally, serve immediately with your favorite sides. Don't forget the ketchup!
