Was thinking of trying my hand at my own corned beef this year. I’m of Irish decent, but have never celebrated st paddy’s beyond getting wasted lol. Maybe whip up some colcannon too? Anyone have any great recipes for corned beef? Or any tips for other dishes to include? I know corned beef and cabbage is an Irish American thing, maybe someone has some more common Irish dishes to recommend?

    I definitely believe that lol. Though it would still be fun to whip up some actual Irish food as a departure from our Irish American nonsense! All I’ve got is shepherds pie? Maybe like…a beef stew? Who knows lol

      Hell, you had me at “whip up some actual Irish food”. 🤌🏼

      Proper bangers & mushy peas w/ brown gravy and a slightly cool red ale? Or, a lamby cheddar hand pie still pipin’ hot from the oven? Even something as simple as a side of herbed whitefish broiled with small onions and whole carrots on top of a parsnip mash. Gawdamn. Do it!

        I mean lamby cheddar hand pies…like could that ever be anything other than delicious? sounds perfect! And I’ve never made mushy peas. I love the bangers and mash route as that would be far less work. But as I’m typing this I’m getting that feeling that I may end up doing all of it lol plus corned beef. I just like food too much lol. Thanks for the ideas! Super appreciated!
