Host a party every year. Looking for some new recipes or ideas just to change things up. Always make corned beef/cabbage , seafood chowder, and irish soda bread. Any new thoughts. Thanks!!!!!!

Trader Joe's sells the best corned beef I have ever tasted. They only have it around St Patrick's Day.

Point cut corned beef and cabbage Colcannon style.

Nice Irish American NYC type St. Patrick's Day Food Fare.

(Colcannon though is an Irish mashed potatoes and cabbage with scallions and butter type of food served).

I think I will also make an Irish Soda Bread too.

There must be more to Irish cuisine that corned beef and cabbage.

Hey DiAnne,

I posted a tried and truly fool proof Peking Duck recipe on your thread which the web site addy I included displays step by step instructions, and photographs.

This Peking Duck recipe is just as delicious as any Chinatown Peking Duck Recipe, and I have made it many times using both versions. It always comes out absolutely delicious.

I hope if it interests you that you will try and like it too.

BTW Happy St. Paddy's Day my friend!

I've been to Ireland 4 times and never had corned beef and cabbage there but make it every year for St Patrick's Day.

Ditto because it is a New York Irish created dish and not served or celebrated in Ireland.

Been there too and knew they do not serve Corned Beef and Cabbage nor celebrate St, Paddy's Day.

Maybe they do now in March of 2015, but they sure did not each time we visited Ireland.

It's been awhile since I've been in Ireland, but I remember having really tasty fresh fish and also a very good lamb stew.

I always have good intentions on Corned Beef & Cabbage, but sometimes I just resort to corned beef on Reuben Sandwiches!

ITA they also make great fish, and also make fabulous tasting fish & chips........The best we had was in Dublin in an Irish Pub and we went on tour and ate that at many places, still the best version was made in Dublin.

Also their Guinness lamb stew with vegetables also served in Irish Pubs & Restaurants was absolutely delicious.

We just picked one up. Love that it's a round, not a brisket. Looking forward to it with all the trimmings.

In my next life, I will live next door to a Trader Joe's. There's not even one in my state.
