Southern Greens Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Greens

    Wash and chop the collard and mustard greens, removing any tough stems.

  2. 2

    Sauté the Aromatics

    In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add minced garlic and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes.

  3. 3

    Add the Smoked Pork

    Place the smoked pork in the pot and add the chicken broth. Bring to a simmer and cook for about 15 minutes.

  4. 4

    Cook the Greens

    Add the chopped greens to the pot. Stir well to combine. Season with salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes. Cover and simmer for about 30-40 minutes, or until the greens are tender.

  5. 5

    Finish with Vinegar

    Stir in the apple cider vinegar just before serving. Adjust seasoning if necessary.
