I don't cook much but, my wife cooks for me all the time and makes me very comfortable in our home. Years ago she had a very good friend that she would trade off with her where she would make her collard greens and my wife would make her Italian dishes, then this Girl passed away and since then she has had some collard greens but just wasn't the same, I remember my wife would smile from ear to ear when she had them. I said many times to myself that I would try to make them and see if I could make them knowing that I'm not much of a cook but, finally this week I took a shot at making them with your recipe I was going to give it a try. Well the other night i started at about 6:30 at night and finished about 11:30 and I woke my wife and said it's time to go to bed and I was finished and I was all cleaned up and that we just had to put the greens a way and that she could try them tomorrow but, she said she wasn't going to bed without trying them, I was nervous but, much to my surprise she had a great big smile on her face! I was thrilled! my wife is a tell it like is woman and she would tell me yay or nay if they weren't good and tonight, she made chicken, and I bought some corn bread, and she loved them so much that she drank the juice off the plate when she was done! It made me Very Happy so, thank you Mama Ray for a Good recipe!

My first introduction to real " Soul " food was while serving
in the Military and stationed in Gulf Port Mississippi. On my
off duty time I would often go into town to basically relax.
During my time in Mississippi I made friends with a Black
Family who's Father was a Barber on our base. I was invited
to have dinner with them and I've never tasted better 👍❤
I'm 77 and obviously retired these days but I'll never forget
the kindness and generosity that family showed to me.

Thank you!! I always pick my greens.
I grew up with salt pork or ham hocks but later I learned to use bacon ends, chicken broth, a pinch of baking soda (makes the greens so tender!)

Kick it up a notch and replace the hammocks with country ham!!
Cut the country ham into silver dollar size pieces and fry it in some bacon grease. Then put that in the greens.

Deglaze bottom of skillet where you fried country hams with a little water then pour that flavor into the greens too.

I use Chicken broth instead of water, I fry 4 slices of bacon crispy, pour in my Hamhocks pot with greens, onions, bellpeppers, Lawrys season salt garlic, & okra cut up, cook until done.

My mother used salt pork to season her collards. She fried the grease out of them and used that! After cooking they were chopped up with a fork & knife. The best! I miss you mama

I thoroughly wash my hammocks and pressure cook them about 50 minutes (saves time), and add them with its liquid to my seasoned greens. Some greens take longer to tenderize than others so cooking time varies.

Fried COLLARD are the best when you know what you're doing.

[tinasmith]

And your greens look:
Absolutely Delicious.

Looks delicious! I love collards! I even like the stems! I remove them, then cut them up small and throw them into the likker early!

[MERTIE]

Tonight I cooked my greens using the oil in the pot method and I absolutely love the way my greens came out. Thanks for posting

I made these collard green yesterday(06/24/2024)I went directly by your instructions, as I put them a pan with bacon grease and watching the cook down the light came on, my Mom used to par boil in water with baking soda to tenderize them I had forgotten all about that, but I like your way of frying them down, was very good. Thank you.
