Classic Irish Boiled Dinner

Classic Irish Boiled Dinner

I grew up eating this boiled dinner on Sundays when I visited my Irish granny. One thing that makes this recipe special is that it calls for a smoked shoulder instead of corned beef. Oh, what a yummy smell will fill your kitchen as this cooks!
