MOM'S NEW ENGLAND BOILED SMOKED PORK BUTT DINNER

Steps:

• 1. Have a large soup pan of boiling water.
• 2. Take the pork butt out of the plastic wrap and carefully remove the paper casing. Carefully place the pork butt in the boiling water and boil on low heat for about an hour.
• 3. Place the potatoes, turnips (or Rutabaga) and carrots in. When they are almost done cooking, place cabbage in. When the potatoes, turnips or rutabaga, carrots and cabbage are finished cooking take them all out of the pan. Take the pork butt out and slice it in not too thick slices. But about 1/3". Place on serving plater, place the vegetables around the pork and pour a little melted butter and chopped parsely or chopped dill on top of the vegetables. Serve hot!
• 4. Save the water to make a bean soup or chowder with.
• 5. Rose Packing Co. in Illinios sells both kinds of Smoked Pork Butt, rolled or square. I call them and spoke to Rick who is here in California. It is the exact recipe they used for making the Dainty brand my Grandmother, Mom and I used. They can have a case of it sent to their supplier here and I will pick it up next Friday. I am one happy camper!

SMOKED PORK BUTT WITH POTATOES AND CABBAGE

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Place smoked pork butt in a Dutch oven or stockpot. Add water to cover and add brown sugar. Cover pot and bring to a boil.
• Reduce heat and simmer, partially covered, for 2 hours. (A pork butt requires about 40 minutes per pound.)
• Halfway through the cooking process (after 1 hour), add the cabbage and peppercorns. Bring back to a boil, reduce the heat, and continue to simmer.
• About 30 minutes before the cooking time is up, add the whole potatoes. Return to a boil, reduce the heat, and continue to simmer, partially covered, until the potatoes and meat are tender.
• Transfer the meat to a cutting board and slice. Arrange on a platter with cabbage wedges and whole potatoes.

SMOKED PORK BUTT DINNER WITH VEGGIES

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Then stud ham with whole clove studs(optional) I like it for the flavor it gives to the smoked butt. Place in a shallow pan, add about 2 inches of water to pan, and put in oven. Cook for 40 minutes per pound, about 2 hours. I made 2 but it still bakes in the same amount of time.
• 2. In the mean time wash & prep the remaining vegetables. To a large pot add potatoes & carrots, and enough water to cover them. Bring to a boil, and cook about 10 minutes, Then add butter, the cabbage, peppers, onions, & garlic and continue to cook about 20 minutes until all of the veggies are tender. Season with steak seasoning and stir to mix.
• 3. When Smoked butt is fully cooked, remove from oven, let rest at least 10 minutes, then slice with a sharp knife, I like to use an electric knife, then place meat on top of veggies, cover with lid to keep warm. Serve while still hot.
• 4. NOTE: This cut of meat can also be cooked in a Dutch oven or large stock pot. Cover with water & bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for the same amount of time specified above, about 40 minutes per pound. Please follow directions on package. I prefer to bake it in the oven to minimize shrinkage during cooking.
