I've always just thought about potatoes when I've thought about Ireland and st paddys day. My father's birthday is on the same day, so we're usually doing stuff to do with that rather than some irish saint who has pretty much no bearing on our lives.
I usually roast corned beef though. It's very nice that way. I usually crust it with seeded mustard and then make a mustard sauce from the juices at the end.
