This has been a family favorite for years!
5-6 pound smoked picnic or ham, cut off rind and visible fat
5 large potatoes, cut in cubes
1 bag baby carrots, cut in half
1 cabbage cut into quarters
1 large onion, sliced or diced
Place meat into a large stockpot and cover with water, bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer at least 3 hours. Add water if necessary to keep meat covered.
Do not put any spices in the water! Smoked pork is salty.
After 3 hours add potatoes let cook about ten minutes, stir, then add carrots, after another ten minutes, stir and add the cabbage and finally wait five more minutes, stir and add the onions. Let simmer at least ten minutes and then turn off heat.
Use slotted spoon to remove veggies and meat from pot and place in large bowl. Try to drain as much water as possible so doesn't get too soggy. Pull meat apart into hunks and serve. Add salt and pepper to individual plates at table if wanted.
