Underwood Corned Beef Spread, 4.25 Ounce (Pack of 12)

Big fan of the Underwood's deviled ham and after I tried this Corned beef became my new favorite sandwich meat spread! Thanks Underwood!

Tastes great

I've always really enjoyed this stuff. It's just the same as always. Fantastic!

I'm surprised at several reviews from buyers in 2021 (when I also bought) finding it "flavorful" or "delicious" -- I can only guess they have little experience to compare it with. The Underwood brand has dominated the US market for convenient canned meat spreads for many decades (most famous: deviled ham); I'd tried most of the other flavors before. These products are US counterparts of the diverse potted meat pâtés traditional in some European countries, where they're more popular, varied, and, often, better -- a point impressed on me, after trying this (dullest?) member of the family. Even Underwood itself implicitly recognizes a weak appeal: Its website currently offers 78 recipe suggestions for the product line: • 42 using deviled ham • 17 using chicken spread • 10 using "roast beef" spread • 5 using liverwurst spread • 3 using maple ham spread (newest of these products) • 1 (just one) using this "corned beef" spread (simplified Reuben sandwiches -- I tried the recipe; unimpressive). Incidentally, "corned beef" in canned products denotes preserved beef generally: not the spiced marinated beef with allspice, mustard seed, etc. made by good US butchers (especially around Saint Patrick's Day). This canned spread is flavored mainly with salt. Amazon offered a dozen cans for $20 last year, so I tried it. One problem that arose is the usual issue with canned foods on Amazon, whose shipping procedures haven't mastered packing to survive carrier handling. So, as usual, some cans arrived dented. But even with contents intact and sealed, in various uses (including Underwood's own recipe, mentioned above) it's dull stuff compared to many other meat spreads I've tried. I guess it'd be good for camping trips etc. where people are hungry and less particular.

Delicious! A good change of pace from deviled ham and potted meat.

This tastes just like canned corned beef, but for a better price. The consistency is much softer, but works well for corned beef sandwich spread. I mixed it with mayonnaise and sweet pickle relish like my mother did. The size is convenient if you're the only one in your household who likes corned beef, and no weird can to struggle with. I haven't tried it in hash yet, but I'm sure it would work well. I'm ordering more.

Fast ship, great product.

I was hoping for the taste of my childhood when my mom would give me Devilswood corn beef sandwich on toast. This product is mush, meat, grease and heavily salted. I unfortunately bought a case. I’m gonna try frying it with some potatoes and add the can to make corn beef hash.. I’ll let you know if it taste better that way.
