Crock Pot Irish Tribute Recipe
I think we all know that cabbage and potatoes are part of the Irish food heritage. But, shrimp, or “prawns” as they are more often called in Ireland, are common in their diet too. I’m sure our regulars know that I’m a shrimp fanatic so I thought I’d fix up something in the crock pot in honor of the upcoming St. Patrick’s Day using shrimp instead of corned beef.
Ingredients
- 1 head cabbage
- 2 ½ pounds small potatoes
- 12-15 whole cloves garlic, peeled
- 4 medium onions
- 1/3 cup olive oil
- 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- 2 teaspoons kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper

- Put mixture into the crock pot and cook on high for 3½ – 4 hours or until the potatoes are almost done.
