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!!

Categories     Ham

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.

NEW ENGLAND ONE-POT DINNER

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Meat & Poultry     Pork Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 medium onions, halved
4 whole cloves
1 4 to 5-pound bone-in ham, (smoked butt or shoulder)
2 pounds Yukon gold, or all-purpose potatoes, peeled and halved lengthwise
1 pound carrots, peeled and halved crosswise (or left whole)
1 pound parsnips, peeled and halved crosswise (or left whole)
1 pound turnips, peeled and cut into 1-inch cubes
1 medium cabbage, (about 3 pounds), cut into 12 wedges
Coarsely chopped flat-leaf parsley, for serving
Horseradish, for serving
Mustard, for serving
Vinegar, for serving

Steps:

  • Stick a clove into each onion half; set aside. Place ham in a large stockpot. Add enough water to cover, and bring to a boil. Drain off water. Cover ham with water once more, add onions, and return to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and cook, partially covered, for 2 hours.
  • Add potatoes, carrots, parsnips, and turnips. Return to boil. Reduce to a simmer and cook, partially covered, until about three-quarters of the way done; this will take about 20 minutes (start checking 10 minutes after the liquid comes to a boil). Remove ham to carving board. Add cabbage to pot, and return to a boil. Cook, partially covered, until all the vegetables are tender when pierced with the tip of a knife, 5 to 10 minutes more.
  • Transfer vegetables to a large serving platter, and sprinkle with parsley. Slice ham and serve with vegetables. Serve with vinegar, mustard, and horseradish on the side.

Tips:

  • Choose a pork butt that is at least 6 pounds. This will ensure that you have enough meat to feed your family and guests.
  • Trim any excess fat from the pork butt before cooking. This will help to reduce the amount of grease in the dish.
  • Use a large pot or Dutch oven that is big enough to hold the pork butt and all of the other ingredients.
  • Be sure to cover the pot or Dutch oven tightly during cooking. This will help to keep the moisture in and prevent the pork from drying out.
  • Cook the pork butt for at least 4 hours, or until it is fall-off-the-bone tender.
  • Serve the pork butt with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, green beans, or coleslaw.

Conclusion:

New England Boiled Smoked Pork Butt Dinner is a classic comfort food dish that is perfect for a family meal or a special occasion. The pork butt is cooked slowly and gently in a flavorful broth, resulting in a tender and juicy meat that is sure to please everyone at the table. Serve it with your favorite sides and enjoy!
