January 2010 Recipe of the Month

Title:  Boiled Ham Dinner (Dutch Oven)
Member: 01YZF6
Granted this was my first ever DO cooking experience, but it came out amazing !

Serving Size: 6-10 people

Ingredients:

1 market ham - size depends on size of your pan or DO ( I do not recommend the spiral type)
2 head of cabbage
2  bunch of carrots ( bagged or fresh)
10 white potatoes or 6 large idaho bakers
1 seasonings of your choice
1 bag of charcoal
Water


Directions:

• Wash all vegetables
• chop cabbage into small quarters
• cut white potatoes into quarters, no need to peel ( if using large idaho bakers peel then cut)
• cut carrots into 2" sections then cut in 1/2 or 1/4 the long way
• lightly mix together in large bowl
• get charcoal or cooking fire going so cooking temp will be 350-425 degrees (approximate)
• place ham in center of pan
• spread cut pieces of cabbage, carrots, and potatoes around ham
• season with spices as desired to your own taste ( salt, pepper,  fresh garlic, onion salt etc etc)
• Fill DO or pan with water until all vegetables are covered and water level is almost to the top of ham. (DO will be 1/2 - 3/4 filled with water)
• every 30 minutes carefully lift lid and check contents ( water should be simmering or at a low boil) lightly stir vegetables around, replace lid.

Prep Time: 20 minutes
Cook Time: 1.5 to 2 hours
Note: I have an 11 qt DO but this will work if you have a turkey pan with cover ( a campfire or grill will work with the pan)
