Stewed Green Beans
- 2 pounds fresh green beans, stems removed and halved
- 1 pound smoked ham hocks (about 2 whole), or 1 smoked turkey leg
- 4 cups chicken stock
- 2 red bell peppers, sliced
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
- In a slow cooker, combine the green beans, ham hocks, stock and bell peppers.
- Cook on high, 3 to 4 hours.
- Once the beans are super tender and the ham hocks are falling apart, you are ready to go.
- Pull the ham hocks out and set aside to cool.
- Once you can handle them, shred every ounce of meat you can find, and then toss the meat with the beans and peppers.
- Season and serve!
