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
- smoked boneless ham or smoked pork shoulder: 3 pound
- salt and pepper: (to taste)
- potatoes: 6 piece (peeled)
- head cabbage, quartered: 1 piece
- onions, quartered: 2 piece
- carrots, cut in half: 0.5 pound
- green beans: 1 pound (trimmed, fresh)

Stages of cooking
-
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.
-
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.
-
To serve, transfer pork to a serving dish and arrange vegetables all around. Let pork rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
