Champ recipe

I love Ireland although the only part I seem to get to these days is Dublin a place that I have visited many times and I still have some very good Irish pals. I will be inviting my pals over on St. Patricks day and the chances are we will be enjoying a few pints of Guinness and I will be cooking Coddle and Champ.
