Jiggs dinner is a meat dish that is traditionally prepared on Sundays in Newfoundland and Labrador. It consists of salt beef, figgy duff, pease pudding, and various vegetables such as carrots, potatoes, cabbage, and turnips. The dish is often accompanied by butter, pickled beets, and cranberry sauce on the side. It is typically prepared for large groups of people, often resulting in lots of leftovers, which are then fried and made into a dish called cabbage hash. Jiggs dinner is named after a popular cartoon character called Jiggs, whose favorite meal was corned beef and cabbage.
