Ingredients
The following ingredients have 9 Servings
- 2 lbs fresh, frozen or canned green beans ((If fresh, remove ends and break into pieces and wash the beans))
- 6 or 7 red potatoes (cut in pieces (I have made this using any kind of potatoes))
- 1 to 2 cups chicken broth or 1 (14.5 ounce can (You don't have to use the chicken broth. I just think it makes them better))
- 1 ham hock (Can use cooked ham, bacon, pork jowl or salt pork about a half cup, chopped)
- 2 to 3 cups water
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup finely diced onion (Optional)
- 1 teaspoon minced garlic (Optional)
Instruction
- Combine all ingredients in a large pot, bring to a boil, then turn to medium low and cook about 1 1/2 hours until potatoes are done and water has cooked down. You can also do this in the crockpot and let cook on low 6 to 7 hours or high 4 hours.
