Paula Deen's Collard Greens
From "The Lady & Sons Savannah Country Cookbook"
Recipe Link: http://www.ebicom.net/~howle/page/collard_greens.htm List of Ingredients
1/2 pound smoked meat (ham hocks, smoked turkey wings or smoked neck bones)
1 tablespoon House Seasoning
1 tablespoon seasoned salt
1 tablespoon Texas Pete hot sauce
1 large bunch of collards
8 tablespoons (1 stick) butter
Recipe
In a large pot, bring 3 quarts of water to a boil and add smoked meat, House Seasoning, seasoned salt and hot sauce. Reduce heat to medium and cook for 1 hour. In the meantime, wash collards greens thoroughly. Remove the thick stem that runs down the center of the greens by holding the leaf in your left hand and stripping the leaf down with your right hand (the tender young leaves in the heart of the collards don't need to be stripped). Stack 6 to 8 stripped leaves on top of each other, roll up, and slice into 1/2- to 1-inch thick slices. Place greens in pot with cooked smoked meat. Add butter after greens. Cook for 45 to 60 minutes, stirring occasionally. When done, taste and adjust seasoning.
