Delicious. 8 hours was too long though; my frozen beans turned very mushy. I used a smoked ham hock and it flavored everything very nicely. Next time I'll stick with one can of broth- even that will be more than enough I think. icons / ellipsis / ellipsis-horizontal J-Lynn Reply 4
Wonderful and so easy! I made this in the crockpot and the house smelled so good. I followed your instructions using the chicken broth and it was so good. The next time I make it (and there WILL be a next time) I will try your suggestion using the Lipton's soup mix. However, the recipe as it stands is WONDERFUL the way it is. Carole, thank you so much for sharing a great recipe. icons / ellipsis / ellipsis-horizontal Merlot Reply 4
I have used this recipe for years except in place of ham I used smoked sausage. Also, in place of broth you can use water. I also found that slow cooking on the stove top only takes about 2.5 hours. Regardless, this recipe or variation thereof is excellent for any day of the week. icons / ellipsis / ellipsis-horizontal Jim N. Reply 2
Wow! What a memory! My mama used to make this for the family when we were kids. Of course, it was with fresh Kentucky Wonder green beans (my mom's favorite) and smoky ham hocks. No one used canned or frozen ANYTHING back then. She simmered the ham hocks till they fell off the bone, then added everything else to the pot. The delicious broth from the ham hocks flavored everything far better than any canned stock ever could. It made the whole house smell wonderful. Um um um! This is an old Southern Sunday Supper staple that I haven't tasted in years. I never could seem to make it as good as my mama's. Maybe I'll give it another try. Thanks so much for the beautiful memory. icons / ellipsis / ellipsis-horizontal CalGal Reply 2 See 6 Replies i plan on making this tomorrow, but with a few tweaks for our tastes, using pork instead of ham, baby potatoes, a packet of dry ranch mix and a little butter, great base recipe to play around with :) Green beans and potatoes is one of my favorite side dishes. I grew up on this dish. I remember when my mother cooked fresh green beans and potatoes straight from the garden seasoned with a ham hock and we could not get enough. They were just that good! Mama used pork jowl and salt pork or just plain bacon as seasonings in any kind of beans she made for us. Today, I feel like the meal is really not complete if we don’t have some kind of beans and potatoes. Mama always cooked a huge kettle of green beans and potatoes and we had them for several days. I never tired of them with cornbread muffins and would make a meal of just the two dishes. Ingredients for Green Beans and Potatoes2 pounds fresh, frozen or canned green beans (If fresh, remove ends and break into pieces and wash the beans) 6 or 7 red potatoes, cut in pieces (I have made this using any kind of potatoes) 1 to 2 cups chicken broth or 1 (14.5 ounce) can (You don’t have to use the chicken broth. I just think it makes them better) 1 ham hock (Can use cooked ham, bacon, pork jowl or salt pork about a half cup, chopped) 2 to 3 cups water 1/2 teaspoon black pepper 1 teaspoon salt 1/2 cup finely diced onion (Optional) 1 teaspoon minced garlic (Optional) Combine all ingredients in a large pot, bring to a boil, then turn to medium low and cook about 1 1/2 hours until potatoes are done and water has cooked down. You can also do this in the crockpot and let cook on low 6 to 7 hours or high 4 hours. Note: You can add a couple teaspoons bacon drippings if you are just using ham. This will add flavor to the beans. Makes 8 to 10 servings. Enjoy. 5 from 41 votes Green Beans and PotatoesThis southern classic is always a hit! Fresh fro the garden or not, it's still delicious.
