    Alright boys Greens How do you do yours

    Jersey's not your hot bed of greens cookin. But when I worked in de, I had some ladies that cooked a mean green. I make mine more brothy almost like a soup, I've used smoked pork shanks, smoked turkey necks and wings. as far as greens, mostly collads and mustard greens. Condiments hot sauce, sweet vinegar and some butter. Any suggestions would be much appreciated, the temps are droppin and a big bowl of greens warms the soul. Thanks Tim

    So my favorite are collards, and my recipe varies a bit depenfing on whether I have tree-huggers who won't eat red meat or not...

    either smoked turkey leg or a ham bone with a reasonable amount of meat still attached, Bring this to a boil in a large pot. lower the heat and simmer until the meat has fallen off the bone. Remove the bones. Raise the heat to medium

    Couple pounds of collards - remove the center rib and cut the leaves into small pieces, place into the pot.

    With the center rib of the leaves removed, it only takes 15 - 20 minutes to be ready to serve.

    Add black pepper to taste. Serve with Pepper sauce

    I've cooked in many different regions of the country, south, northeast and the west southwest and some of the simplest dishes can be the most intriuging. They can also be very challenging, because the ingrediants are not always the best cuts of meats or the highest quality. A fillet mignon is a great cut of meat, but its pretty hard to screw it up unless you over cook it. For some one to take a bunch of dirty greens and a chunk of smoked meat and turn it into something full of flavor, to me that takes a good culinary mind. Thanks for the input Tim
