Tin intact?
No dents or bulging?
No release of pressure on opening?
No 'off' odour?
Should be fine. -
That's a "best before", right? It's not actually bad to eat?
It usually says BB if it means best before. As @mespilus intimates, intact tinned goods are unlikely to be hazardous, and 3 months past the BB date is hardly pushing the envelope of a process designed to keep food safe for decades.

While heating up a tin of soup (oxtail) I notice that the expiry date is 11-2017. That's a "best before", right? It's not actually bad to eat?
