The other day I posed the question, "Corned Beef or Smoked Pork Shoulder for dinner?" Then we made Corned Beef and Cabbage. Today it's time for my Boiled Smoked Pork Shoulder and Vegetables recipe.
Boiled Smoked Pork Shoulder and Vegetables
1- 7 to 9 lb. Smoked Pork Shoulder
1 Cabbage
1 Rutabaga (Sometimes called Yellow Turnip or Horse Turnip)
1-2 lbs. of Carrots
2-3 lbs. of Potatoes (Plain White, Yukon Gold, Fingerlings, Peruvian Purple- whatever you like.)
4-6 Sweet Onions
1-2 lbs. of any Root Vegetables of your choice (Parsnips, Turnips, Celery Root, Sweet Potato or Yam, Sunchokes, Radish or Daikon, Beets, etc.- Beets need to be cooked separately)
4-6 Garlic cloves
1/2 tbs. of Black Peppercorns
2-3 Bay Leaves
1 tbs. pickling or other cooking spices (Allspice, Cloves, Mustard Seed, Coriander, Ginger, Cinnamon, Nutmeg, etc.)

Additionally, Jonathan M. Forester is one of my favorite slashfoodies, and it's good to see more of him.
