Green Beans With Ham Hock And New Potatoes Food

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.

GREEN BEANS WITH POTATOES AND HAM

Steps:

• Combine ham hocks, onion, garlic, celery, thyme, bay leaf, chile, 3/4 teaspoon salt, and the water in a large pot. Bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat, and simmer, uncovered, 1 hour 30 minutes.
• Transfer ham hocks to a plate. Discard chile, and add potatoes to pot; simmer until just tender, 10 to 12 minutes.
• When ham hocks are cool enough to handle, pull meat off bones (discard bones), shred into bite-size pieces, and return to pot. Add green beans, and return to a simmer. Cover, and cook until beans are just tender, about 8 minutes. Season with pepper. Serve vegetables and meat with a slotted spoon; reserve broth for another use. If storing leftovers, store in broth.

GREEN BEANS AND POTATOES

Steps:

• 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.

GREEN BEANS AND HAM

Steps:

• Place ham steak, potatoes, green beans, onion, and butter in a large pot with just enough water to cover. Season with salt and pepper; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until potatoes are tender, about 20 minutes.

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 AND HAM HOCKS

Steps:

• Snap or cut green beans in one inch pieces.
• Rinse off with cold water and place them in a crockpot or large pan.
• Trim outer skin and fat from the ham hocks/shanks.
• Cut into smaller pieces if possible Cut around the bones but do not remove them.
• Place in the crockpot/pan with the green beans and mix well.
• Pour the beer and broth in and mix well again.
• Crockpot method:Cook on high for 5-6 hours.
• Stovetop method:Cook on high until it boils and then lower heat and simmer for 5-6 hours The longer these cook, the better they taste.
• Serve in bowls.

OLD SOUTH GREEN BEANS AND POTATOES

Steps:

• In pot cover green beans with water and boil till tender with potatoes and bacon (or ham hock); drain.
• Add your favorite seasoning (I like butter, salt, and pepper).
• Remember ham hocks take a little longer than green beans, so if you use a ham hock, boil it first till tender then add the rest and cook. I personally never use ham hock due to fat content--I usually just use the bacon strips. I only listed it here as it was in the old south recipe.

SOUTHERN GREEN BEANS, HAM & POTATOES

Steps:

• Place ham hock and bacon in large Dutch oven pot or soup pot; cover with water.
• Bring to a rapid boil.
• Turn burner to medium to medium-high and let it come to a medium boil.
• Add the sliced onion.
• Let this cook while you wash and snap your beans (about an hour or more).
• Wash beans, cut off ends and break in half.
• Add beans, salt, sugar, garlic, pepper and parsley to the ham hocks.
• Let it come to a boil, then turn burner to medium, to medium-low.
• Let it slow boil for about an hour or more or less, depending on how well you like your beans cooked.
• About 15-20 minutes before done, add your potatoes.
• Boil until tender.

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.
