  • 4 strips (thick cut bacon)
  • 2 lbs. green beans (fresh (trimmed))

Instruction

  • Cook the bacon in a large dutch oven or pot until crisp then drain on a paper towel lined plate. Cut into pieces.
  • Reserve the grease and add the beans, water, broth, garlic powder, seasoning salt and pepper to the pot. Bring the mixture to a boil and then simmer for 20 to 30 minutes, until the beans are tender. Drain the beans into a strainer and return the pot to the stove top.
