I grew up eating this boiled ham dinner on Sundays when I visited my Irish granny. One thing that makes this recipe special is that it calls for a smoked ham or smoked pork shoulder instead of corned beef. A yummy smell will fill your kitchen as this cooks!

Ingredients

  • 3 pounds smoked boneless ham or smoked pork shoulder

  • salt and pepper to taste

  • 6 potatoes, peeled

  • 1 large head cabbage, quartered

  • 2 large onions, quartered

  • 1/2 pound carrots, cut in half

  • 1 pound fresh green beans, trimmed

Directions

  1. Place smoked ham or pork shoulder into a large pot and add 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 potatoes, cabbage, onions, and carrots to the pot and continue to simmer. Tie green beans into a bundle with kitchen string. Add to the pot, re-cover, and cook until carrots and potatoes are tender, about 25 minutes.
