NEW POTATOES, GREEN BEANS AND HAM

Steps:

• I cook this in a crockpot all day, but may be cooked in a dutch oven on the stove, also.
• Add all the ingredients and cover, cook on low for 8 to 10 hours.
• If cooking on the stove you may need more broth, but the crockpot makes broth as it cooks, so you shouldn't need any more.
• Use your own judgement on the amount of broth.
• Serve with fresh, sliced tomatoes and corn bread for a great Southern meal.

NEW POTATOES WITH GREEN BEANS, COUNTRY-STYLE

Steps:

• In large pot, heat margarine with ham pieces and onion; cook until onion is tender and ham is nicely browned.
• Add green beans, potatoes, salt, pepper, chicken broth, thyme, parsley, and marjoram, stirring mixture thoroughly.
• Bring mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer, for 20 minutes, or until potatoes are tender, stirring occasionally.
• Note: If you prefer to use smoked ham in this recipe, adjust your seasoning for salt to taste.

SOUTHERN-STYLE GREEN BEANS WITH BACON AND NEW POTATOES

Steps:

• In a large saucepan or medium Dutch oven, cook bacon over medium heat until it has rendered most of its fat and has begun to brown, about 5 minutes. Add the onion and saute until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the green beans and potatoes and enough water to just cover them. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Season with salt and pepper, to taste, then cover the pan and simmer until the beans are very tender, about 1 hour, stirring occasionally and adding more water if necessary to keep the beans covered. As the beans get close to being done they will become quite fragile, so take care when stirring.

SLOW COOKER GREEN BEANS, HAM AND POTATOES

Steps:

• Halve beans if they are large, place in a slow cooker with water to barely cover, and add onion and ham hocks. Cover, and cook on High until simmering. Reduce heat to Low, and cook for 2 to 3 hours, or until beans are crisp but not done.
• Add potatoes, and cook for another 45 minutes. While potatoes are cooking, remove ham hocks from slow cooker, and remove meat from bones. Chop or shred meat, and return to slow cooker. Season with garlic powder, onion powder, seasoning salt, bouillon, and pepper. Cook until potatoes are done, then adjust seasoning to taste.
• To serve, use a slotted spoon to put beans, potatoes, and ham into a serving dish with a little broth.

HAM, POTATOES, AND GREEN BEANS

Steps:

• Cube the potatoes, peeling first if desired.
• String the beans and break into 2 inch pieces.
• Coarsely chop the onion.
• Place ham, potatoes, beans, black pepper, and onions into a wide, shallow pot or dutch oven.
• Add enough water to come within a couple inches of the top of the food.
• Bring the pot to a boil then simmer gently for 15 minutes or until potatoes are tender.
• This can be drippy so I suggest serving it in bowls or soup plates.
• Cornbread makes a good accompaniment if you want to sop up the juices.

GREEN BEANS WITH HAM HOCK AND NEW POTATOES

Steps:

• In a large pot, fill with enough water to just cover ham hocks and bring to a boil. Cover and simmer 45 minutes. Add beans and sugar and continue cooking another 25 minutes. Add potatoes and salt and cook until potatoes are tender, about 20 minutes more. Remove hocks from pot and remove meat from the bone. Add meat back to the pot, add salt and pepper, to taste, and serve.

COUNTRY GREEN BEANS AND HAM

Steps:

• In a large saucepan, with a lid, over medium heat, add the oil. Season the ham with black pepper. Add the ham and cook for 2 minutes on each side. Remove and set aside. Add the onions. Season with salt and pepper. Saute for 2 minutes. Add the reserved ham and beans back to the pan. Cover the beans completely with water. Bring the liquid to a boil, reduce heat to medium low, partially cover and cook for 2 hours. Remove from the heat and reseason if necessary

GREEN BEANS AND COUNTRY HAM, SOUTHERN-STYLE RECIPE - (4/5)

Steps:

• Place the ham slices in a large sauté pan. Add about 3 cups of water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat, cover and simmer until ham is tender. Remove ham from pot and cut into small pieces. Return to the pot and add the beans, potatoes and onions. Season with pepper. Add a bit more water if needed, but not too much. Bring back to a boil, then reduce heat, cover and simmer until beans are very tender, about 1 hour. (Cooking time will depend on the age of the beans.) Taste the beans and add salt if needed but, since country ham is very salty, additional salt will probably not be necessary. If there appears to be too much broth, cook on high without the cover until some of the moisture evaporates. Add butter to beans and stir until melted; replace lid and cook an additional 10 minutes. This will keep, covered, over low heat until serving. Notes: If you want a meatier main dish, add some smoked ham pieces when you add the beans. For most people, more country ham would make it too salty. Instead of large potatoes, you can use about one pound baby or creamer potatoes, halved if large. I like yukon gold, but any boiling potato is fine.

COUNTRY STYLE GREEN BEANS WITH RED POTATOES

Steps:

• Place the ham hock('s) and onion into a 4 quart Dutch oven and fill half way full with water.
• Season water with salt, pepper and garlic powder and bring to a boil, then cover and simmer over low heat until meat falls off the bones, about 2 hours. Remove the bones and skin; return the meat to the pot.
• Discard bones and skin.
• Add the green beans to the Dutch oven and simmer for 20 minutes, then add the potatoes. Simmer for 10 to 15 minutes more, or until they can be easily pierced with a fork.
