GRAMMIE BEA'S NEW ENGLAND BOILED DINNER



Grammie Bea's New England Boiled Dinner image

New England boiled dinner is often made with a smoked ham shoulder, and that's the way we always had it at my house growing up. The flavor is incredible and makes for a DELICIOUS meal! Some people like their vegetables firm and some like them soft and tender, so cook your veggies accordingly. The cooking time for this particular recipe is 4 hrs. for an 8 lb. ham, or 5 hrs. for a 10 lb. ham. Another way of cooking veggies is, wait until ham is cooked and removed from water, then cook your veggies in the water in the kettle to the desired doneness. Sometimes I use boneless ham and add turnip and beets, just like in the photo I posted. Yummy!!

Time 4h25m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 (8 -10 lb) smoked ham, shoulder any size (I use an 8-10 lb. ham for this amount of vegetables and cook 4-5 hrs.)
3 onions, peeled, and left whole
1 -2 cabbage, each cut into 6 wedges
8 large potatoes, peeled, and cut in half
1 lb carrot, peeled, and cut in half

Steps:

  • Place ham in a large dutch oven style kettle.
  • Cover with cold water, and fill to about 2" above top of ham. Cover kettle, and bring to a boil using high heat.
  • Turn down to med-high and let boil a few minutes, then drain water, and refill with water 2" above ham, and bring to a boil again over high heat. This method is used to make the ham less salty. (Or you may refrigerate ham overnight in water, and change water several times before cooking instead).
  • Once water comes to a boil, turn heat down to med. to med-high making sure it keeps boiling. Keep cover on kettle while cooking.
  • Add peeled onions to the kettle.
  • Cook ham 1/2 hour per pound of ham.
  • Add some water to the kettle, when it starts getting low.
  • Peel and cut potatoes and carrots.
  • Wash and core cabbage, then cut into wedges.
  • Add vegetables during the last 30-40 minutes of cooking time. Serve when veggies are tender, or to your liking.

HEARTY NEW ENGLAND BOILED DINNER

This is traditional here in Maine. It is cooked in one pot and easy to prepare with all the root veggies mixed with the corned beef. I know people who do this with a picnic ham because they don't like corned beef. The secret (I think) to the corned beef saltiness is to discard the first water after it comes to a boil and recover it with fresh water.

HOLLY'S NEW ENGLAND BOILED DINNER



Holly's New England Boiled Dinner image

A few years ago, my husband Tom found this recipe in a Marjorie Standish cookbook that I had purchased. Years ago, Marjorie Standish used to write a cooking column for the Portland Press Herald here in Maine. Tom did change the recipe and I am posting his version. This could not be easier, but it does take about four hours from start to finish. This is the kind of recipe that you want on a cold day, that's why we made this yesterday. It's cold here right now and we had a craving for all of those wonderful root vegetables.

Categories     Beef

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 - 3 1/2 pound corned beef briskit
4 - medium potatoes, peeled and quartered
16-20 - baby carrots
1 - medium turnip, peeled and cubed
1 - small cabbage, chopped

Steps:

  • Any other root vegetables may be added, but if you add beets, cook them separately.
  • Cover beef with water in a large pot. Bring this to a boil, and then simmer 1 hour per pound
  • One hour before the beef is done, add the vegetables, and that's it!!
  • When done serve with salt, pepper and butter on the vegetables. It's delicious. The turnip is incredible, and the next night you can make hash in a cast iron skillet.
