Ingredients
3 large bundles collard greens, well-washed
4 slices bacon, chopped
1/2 onion, sliced
3 cloves garlic, smashed
1/2 cup light brown sugar
3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
4 cups chicken broth
1/2 cup bourbon
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Directions
- Remove stems from greens and discard. Roll up like a cigar and slice into ribbons.
- In a large pot over medium heat, add bacon, onion, and garlic. Render bacon until crisp and the onion is tender, about 6 minutes.
- Stir in brown sugar, vinegar, broth, and bourbon. Season with salt and pepper. Bring to a simmer and stir in the collard greens in batches. Cover and cook for 1 1/2 hours until tender and soft.
