Ingredients

  • 1/2 pound smoked meat (ham hocks, smoked turkey wings, or smoked neck bones)
  • 1 tablespoon House seasoning, recipe follows
  • 1 tablespoon seasoned salt
  • 1 tablespoon hot red pepper sauce
  • 1 large bunch collard greens
  • 1 tablespoon butter

Directions

In a large pot, bring 3 quarts of water to a boil and add smoked meat, house seasoning, seasoned salt and hot sauce. Reduce heat to medium and cook for 1 hour.

Wash the collard greens thoroughly. Remove the stems that run down the center by holding the leaf in your left hand and stripping the leaf down with your right hand. The tender young leaves in the heart of the collards don't need to be stripped. Stack 6 to 8 leaves on top of one another, roll up, and slice into 1/2 to 1-ince thick slices. Place greens in pot with meat and add butter. Cook for 45 to 60 minutes, stirring occasionally. When done taste and adjust seasoning.

Serve with favorite dish as a side.

House Seasoning:

  • 1 cup salt
  • 1/4 cup black pepper
  • 1/4 cup garlic powder

Mix ingredients together and store in an airtight container for up to 6 months.

    Waaayyyyyyyyy to salty!!!!!!!!!!!!!.
    I don't know if that "one cup" of salt is a typo, but you can not even think about eating these greens..
    This is the first time making these. I grew the collards myself and now they are going to be wasted. I am very dissapointed.I should have went with my gut instinct and cut back on the salt, but I have heard so many rave reviews about PD's greens. Sad sunday. :( What a waste. Paula, call me!

    *** OK, I read more reviews and I realized I was the one who screwed up. lol I see now where is says 1 tbs of house seasoning. Sorry Paula! xoxox, ***
