We never really do, which strikes me a little odd, because I'll usually find any reason to do up a themed meal like that. Maybe I'll have to do a little research.
In the UK, aside from the Irish, its not really celebrated but I know its quite bog in the USA.
I do like a pint of Guinness so I may make a Guinness beef stew to go with it.

A pint of Guinness is ideal when you are down in the bog warming your feet (my apologies to Ian Anderson).

There is big parade for this but cancelled this time, shame. We do not celebrate but I may do beef. I see.

I'll be making Irish potato pancakes tomorrow, so that they'll be ready on the 17th for me to post the recipe.
I will also do something with lamb offal, not sure what. But I picked up half a lamb last Wednesday from my pastured farmer, and it came with a heart and two kidneys (I guess whomever got the other half didn't want the other kidney...)

I'm planning on making an Irish Stout roasted chicken and veg and a Guinness chocolate cake.

Definitely want to see that Guinness chocolate cake recipe!
I'll post it when I make it. Nothing special, looking at the ingredients, but it'll be fun. Sometimes, "nothing special" is perfect, because it's low effort.

I might be buying up some corned beef deckles to turn into pastrami.
I could look that up but...

A whole beef brisket (also called a "packer") has two separate sections, the flat and the point, also called the deckle. Most of the "corned beef briskets" we get here are the deckle only.
