BOILED DINNER WITH HAM HOCKS, GRANDMA'S

Boiled Dinner with Ham Hocks, Grandma's image

Grandma loved this boiled dinner with ham hocks. I use ham or corned beef when I make it but I want to post the original for the cookbook I am working on. If you like old fashioned ham hocks you might like this one.
