Directions:

  1. Equipment 1 large stock pot 2 pudding bags (The amounts listed above below are based on serving 5 people.) When planning to make Jigg's Dinner, the salt beef and the split peas should be soaked overnight to remove the excess salt.

  3. Place the beef in the stock pot and put enough water in just to cover the beef.
  4. After an hour of soaking, test the water.
  5. If it is extremely salty, dump out that water and soak the beef for another hour.
  6. If the water is fine, fill up the pot with water and set it to boil!
  7. The split peas that have been soaking overnight, must be drained.
  8. Then, place the peas in the pudding bag (again make sure to wet it), tie it properly and drop in the boiling water.
  9. Both of the puddings should take close to two hours.
  10. Now comes the count down for the vegetables.
  11. The following is a guideline of cooking times for each of the vegetables: Cabbage 40 minutes (1 hour and 20 minutes into the boil).
  12. Turnips& Carrots 30 minutes (1 1/2 hours).
