During the cooking process, they soak up an amazing amount of flavor from bacon grease, chicken broth, seasoned salt, and garlic powder. I start by cooking some diced bacon in a large pot. I then set the bacon aside, but leave all the grease in the pan. You can leave the bacon in the pot to cook with the beans, but it will get a soggy texture. But the up side is the beans will have even more bacon flavor. Most times I add the cooked bacon back once I\u2019ve drained the beans, but sometimes I just leave it in the pot for the cooking process.<\/p>\n

Many times a ham hock is used instead of bacon, or in addition to bacon.<\/p>\n

You want to cook Southern-Style Green Beans for at least an hour, preferably closer to 2 hours. You want them to get really soft, but not mushy, so that they are melt in your mouth tender. Just before serving, you can mix in a tablespoon or so of butter to give the green beans a buttery coating.<\/p>\n

INGREDIENTS<\/p>\n

4 slices bacon,, diced
\n2 pounds green beans ends snapped off and longer beans snapped in half
\n2 cups chicken broth
\n2 cups water
\n1 teaspoon seasoned salt
\n1\/2 teaspoon black pepper
\n1\/2 teaspoon garlic powder
\n1\/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
\n1 tablespoon butter, optional<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Brown and crisp bacon in a large pot. Remove bacon from pot and reserve.
\nAdd green beans to pot along with all remaining ingredients, except butter.
\nBring to a boil and then turn heat to medium-low. Cover and simmer for 1-2 hours, stirring occasionally.
\nDrain beans and add butter if using. Check beans for seasoning and add extra salt and pepper to taste. I like lots of black pepper. Sprinkle with bacon and toss to distribute the bacon and butter.<\/p>\n
