I'll take this opportunity to tell you that your corned beef and cabbage recipe was a hit with my family. Can't wait to try this recipe. And others. I am a rookie when it comes to cooking. Thank you.
Sorry, I rarely cook a ham bone for a family dinner separately as my wife and offspring when they were kids don’t do ham. How ‘bout using smoked Turkey legs or smoked ham hocks or ham shank which are readily available ; just enough to provide the 4-5 cups of meat? Do you threw in potatoes?
