    Recipe:
    2-3 lbs salt beef
    1 head of cabbage
    1 medium rutabaga
    6 medium carrots
    4 parsnip
    6 large potato
    1 chicken
    1 small onion for chicken
    Pease pudding:
    1 ½ cup yellow split peas
    2 tablespoons butter
    Pepper to taste
    Dressing:
    1 small loaf of bread
    1 small onion
    ¼ cup melted butter
    2 tablespoons savory
    1 small apple
    1. Cut salt meat into smaller chunks if needed. Cover with cold water and soak overnight.
    2. Prepare the dressing, blend the bread to make fine breadcrumbs. Chop the onion and apple. Add it to the breadcrumbs along with melted butter and savory.
    3. Stuff the chicken with the dressing until full. Add the rest of the dressing to tinfoil making sure it’s all covered. Cook it in the oven with the chicken.
    4. Season the chicken with salt, pepper and savory. Cut an onion and add it to the roasting pan along with 1 cup of water.
    5. Cover the chicken and cook at 350°F for around 30 minutes. After 30 minutes remove the cover and cook for another 30 minutes to an hour depending on the size. The thermometer should read 165°F.
    6. Add the split peas to a pease pudding bag. If you don’t have one you can use cheesecloth.
    7. Add the salt beef to a large pot. Tie the pease pudding bag onto the handle. Cover the pot full with water, bring to a boil and reduce to a simmer for 2 hours.
    8. Prepare the vegetables, peel the carrot, parsnip, rutabaga and potato. Cut into chunks.
    9. After two hours, take out the pease pudding. Add the cabbage and rutabaga, simmer for 20 minutes or until they are almost cooked through.
    10. Add the potato, carrot and parsnip last, cook for 20-25 minutes or until the vegetables are fork tender.
    11. To finish the pease pudding, when the bag has cooled a bit, turn it inside out and add to a bowl, add butter and pepper to taste.
    12. Take out the dressing when the chicken is cooked, add it to a large bowl along with the dressing from the chicken.
    13. To make the gravy, put the roasting pan directly over the burner and turn on medium heat. Mix together around ¼ cup of flour and 1 cup of water.
    14. Add some of the pot liquor if there’s not enough chicken drippings. Add the roux until you reach your desired thickness.
    15. To serve, add a little of everything to each plate along with pickled beets and/or mustard pickles.

    I have made this so many times and can you believe I learnt a new trick today. I once burnt my peas pudding bag onto the bottom of the pot cause it sinks of course especially if you put the veg on top of it which I usually do. Never thought of tieing it onto the pot handle. What a great tip!!! And you cook it all just like your parents with the apple in the dressing, and they make best dinner. I love watching your videos. Keep up the good work.

    I have never had a jiggs dinner, or peas porridge, but I'm wild about corned beef and cabbage. So it's a good bet I'll like this too.

  • @hereforthecomments6860
    @hereforthecomments6860 2 роки тому +8

    If you include any meat besides salt beef, it then ceases to be a Jiggs dinner, it’s now a cooked dinner/ Sunday dinner. Jiggs dinner is saltmeat only

    If it's inside the chicken it's stuffing, if it's cooked separately it's dressing. Cheers!

    Great video
    I don’t use flour to thicken my gravy ever. Instead, I purée some of the vegetables with more onions to thicken my gravy. The gummy flour doesn’t suit me well.
    Thanks for a great recipe. Will be making it soon.

    Growing up , I watched my grandmother tear the bread apart , we never had the gadgets of today , to bad cause I’m sure it would have made life easier. 😉
    I’m just wonderin? The savoury was that something you always used? We only ever had poultry seasoning, now I find they use that a lot? I’m currently living in NB after having lived in Ont for the to long!
    Geezus what I wouldn’t give for a night of old times…😥
    My grandma made the best doughballs, and homemade bread.
    We use to have blubbery grunt .

    I don't think I have ever cooked a full chicken before. I think I will do a smaller version of this with a reconstructed chicken roll instead, with the skin of the chicken and the meat from the thigh.

    • @SamAndFengCooking
      @SamAndFengCooking  Рік тому +1

      Hi! Cooking a whole chicken will always vary depending on the size of the chicken and how hot your oven is, there's no way for me to tell you an exact time. I always recommend using a thermometer to be sure!
