    Way too sweet. I would suggest cutting the sugar entirely and adding a bit of garlic instead.

    I actually made Paula Deen's collards recipe HOWEVER, I borrowed the idea of adding sugar suggested in this recipe. My collards were DELECTABLE. Definitely cut the sugar in half and add ONLY a 1/2 cup otherwise, it will be really sweet. This new addition gave the collards that "something, something" and that something was GOOD.

    I saw Gina cook this with Paula Deen and knew I had to try it. It was awesome. Loved the sweetness and the kick. Ive always had to add a bit of Louisiana hot sauce or pepper sauce in the past. this doesnt really need that now. will make it my go to greens recipe.

    Absolutely fabulous! Even the kids loved it. I would definitely cut the sugar though. I thought that as I was measuring but you live and learn. We like things a little more spicy in our house so I'm going to increase the red pepper flakes next time. Went perfectly with the Turkey with holiday rub recipe they included in the app. I <3 the Neely's!!!!!!!!

    Gina girl sure knows what she is doing!! Loved this recipe. I will cut the sugar in 1/2 the next time I make it. I did add a little vinegar on mine but hubby (who was cracking up the whole time loved his just the way Gina does....it is a new "New Years Day" tradition in our home!!!

    This reciepe is so simple and it's so good. I'm going use this recipe from now on. Everyone loved my collard greens. I did read the reviews prior to preparing it and per everyone's suggestions I cut the sugar by half and it was perfect.

    This is a great collard recipe! Very Southern and with the right amount of salt with the sugar the flavor is awesome.

    Great recipe for "authentic" collard greens!!! I've struggled for years with getting the flavors right with my greens and this recipe hits the mark. I modified a little bit by slightly reducing the amount of sugar and using a smoked turkey leg, instead of hamhocks.

    Yep, this recipe rocks!!! Although I only use half the sugar she recommends, it still has so much flavor. The meaty ham hocks really are great Love them with the hot vinegar I make.
