I'm trying out a new recipe for dinner...Dublin Coddle. It's sausage, bacon, potatoes, onions, Guinness and some other stuff. Baking in a Dutch oven right now!

Guess we're going Irish tonight

Nope. I only like cabbage either cold (think cole slaw) or as sauerkraut.

I was going to bake soda bread but that plus the coddle won't fit in my oven at the same time. Guess instead of soda bread, we'll settle for soda crackers

Same here but recently have found that fried cabbage isn't bad as long as you don't overcook it.

Do you fry it in bacon fat? That's the way my mom used to fix it.

Yep, the heading on my recipe calls it "Irish comfort food". This is one of the new "international" recipes I've been waiting to try all summer.

True to google does not offer a recipe with Irish comfort food one of the many reasons I have learned to hate it but still use it all the time

Guess my post was confusing...the name of the recipe is Dublin Coddle and it's described as an Irish comfort food. I've had the recipe long enough, can't remember where I found it but will post it here.

8 slices of bacon, chopped into small pieces
1 pound pork sausages (I'm using polish sausage, can't get anything like bangers)
1 Tab flour
1 bottle Guinness beer
2 pounds potatoes, peeled & cut into bite sized pieces
2 large onions, cut into slices
4 cloves garlic, minced
4 Tab fresh minced parsley
3 bay leaves
1 tsp dried thyme
fresh cracked black pepper
2 Cups beef, ham or chicken broth

* Preheat oven to 300*
* Heat a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add in the bacon and cook until crisp. Remove bacon to drain on paper towels. Leave the bacon grease in the Dutch oven.
* Add the sausages in (a few at a time, don't crowd the pan) and cook on each side until browned. Remove to a plate and when cool enough to handle, slice into 1" pieces.
* Reduce the heat to low, whisk in flour. Cook for 2 minutes, whisking constantly. Remove from heat.
* Whisk in the bottle of Guinness.
* Place half the potatoes in the gravy, followed by half the onions, half the garlic, half the bacon, half the sausage, half the parsley, the bay leaves, the thyme, and black pepper. Repeat layers with the remaining ingredients.
* Pour the broth over the whole thing. Place lid on Dutch oven and bake at least 2 hours (or up to 5 hours).

NOTE: Between the sausage, bacon and broth, this can be a salty dish. Do not add more salt without tasting first.
