About This Item

Sadly, my sister unexpectedly died in Newfoundland on Friday April 11, 2025. I traveled back the following day for her service and to be with my family. While there I enjoyed some of the Newfoundland foods I grew up with. This TB is one of several Newfoundland food 'Ornaments' i got while in Newfoundland. I thought it would be fun to bring these to Texas and see which ones (if any) make it back to Newfoundland. 

Jiggs dinner, also called boiled dinner or cooked dinner, is a traditional meal commonly prepared and eaten on Sundays in Newfoundland and other Maritime provinces. Corned beef and cabbage was the favourite meal of Jiggs, the central character in the popular, long-running comic strip Bringing Up Father by George McManus and Zeke Zekley.

The meal most typically consists of salt beef (or salt riblets), boiled together with potatoes, carrot, cabbage, turnip, and greens. Pease pudding and figgy duff are cooked in pudding bags immersed in the rich broth that the meat and vegetables create. Condiments are likely to include mustard pickles, pickled beets, cranberry sauce, butter, and a thin gravy made from the cooking broth.

The leftover vegetables from a Jiggs dinner are often mixed into a pan and fried to make a dish known as "cabbage hash" or "corned beef and cabbage hash", much like bubble and squeak.

In the ornament is: potatoes, cabbage, carrots, turnip. dressing and gravy, salt beef, roast.
