BOILED HAM DINNER

Boiled Ham Dinner image

I made this all-in-one dish often for my children when they were growing up. Now, I fix it when baby-sitting my grandchildren...they love it, too. It's easy to cook in one pot on the stovetop. -Janet Tucker of Bellevue, Ohio

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

Ingredients

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.
