Question on a phrase

Years ago, my UWI van driver would say something like "talk is cheap" but followed it up with something about corned beef. I never figured out what the second part of that phrase was about.

Any Caribbean folks have any idea on what it could have been?

I'm sure at the time I knew exactly what he was talking about, but this is 20 years ago I'm talking about here lol lol

I don't know if it was a common phrase or something that he alone came up with, and no I don't know why I thought of it just this morning lol
