Corned beef is a real treat in our family and we love the savory flavor the vegetables pick up from simmering in the pickling spices. —Joy Strasser, Mukwonago, Wisconsin

This is the traditional Irlish Boiled Dinner, my great-grandmother's family have made since the 1860's. I use the spice packet & I do add the other spices..tastes delious!

I didn't make this particular recipe, but it's exactly like what I've been doing for years. With the spice packet. The only thing I do in addition is, when the meat is done, I take it out of the broth and put it into a 325 degree oven while I boil the veggies. It sets the meat and puts a nice glaze on it, also allowing for the veggies to have more room in the pot. I do this same thing with Keilbasa sausage for between St. Patty's Day meals using pickling spices in a mesh bag or tea ball.It's perfect!

I agree this boiled dinner does not need any spices added to it just salt and pepper is enough. You spoil the flavour of the veggies and the meat

My suggestion would be to lose the Spice Packet. The Spice packet ruins the dish in my opinion. The peppercorns and bayleaf are also unnecessary. The dish works much better unadulterated.
