Collard Greens with Country Ham Hock
When I ordered up some country ham biscuit slices, I also ordered some country ham hocks. So last week I made some collard greens using the Country Ham Hock. Very yummy. Loving this Southern Livin...

I use two cartons of chicken broth, add water to cover, a teaspoon of hot sauce plus the ham hocks. The chicken broth adds a rich flavor.
I am making a big pot for a family birthday lunch this Saturday plus I have two 10 lb pork butts ready to smoke on the Big Green Eggs, I will cook both low heat with hickory chips for 10-12 hours. We are going to pig out big time. That and a platter of deviled eggs made from the fresh eggs I get from my neighbors free range chickens will be a big part of the meal.
This is where I want to go for dinner! It gets no better then that! When I made the broth I used a roasted chicken carcass, couple stocks of celery, an onion, and couple cloves of garlic. Added the country ham hocks and let it go for 6 or so hours. Then I used the stock to make the collards. Boned out the hock, added some bacon and onion. Best ever!
