KMOMMYZ Recipe ⟶ Classic Irish Boiled Dinner

I grew up eating this boiled dinner on Sundays When I visited my Irish Granny. One of the things that makes this recipe special is that instead of corned beef, it calls for Smoked Shoulder. Oh What A yummy smell will fill your kitchen as this cooks!

Ingredients

• 3 pounds smoked pork shoulder
• salt and pepper to taste
• 2 large onions, quartered
• 6 potatoes, peeled
• 8 ounces carrots, cut in half
• 1 large head cabbage, quartered
• 1 pound fresh green beans, trimmed

Cooking Directions

1. Place the smoked pork into a large pot and fill with enough water to cover. Season with salt and pepper, cover and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer for about 30 minutes.
2. Add the carrots, potato, cabbage and onions; cover and continue to simmer. Use kitchen string to tie the green beans into a bundle. Add them to the pot, cover and continue to cook until the carrots and potatoes are tender, about 25 minutes.
3. To serve, remove pork to a serving dish. Arrange vegetables around it. Allow the pork to rest about 10 minutes before slicing.
