7-8 pound ham
1 large onion
5 pounds potatoes
1/2 cup butter
Salt
Pepper
Water
Scrub potatoes and slice to about 1/4 in thickness. Do not peel. Grease the inside of the dutch oven well, then place ham in the center of the oven. Add half potatoes, about half the onion, and about 1/2 the butter (cut into pats and placed evenly over potatoes and onions). Salt and pepper thoroughly. Add another layer of potatoes and onions, then butter, salt, and pepper. Add about 1/2 cup water for steam. Cover and cook for about 1 - 1/2 hours.
After removing from the fire, add an additional 1/2 cup water and replace lid. Allow to steam for about 10 minutes. Enjoy!
