[…] Collard greens have long been an important part of Southern cooking, particularly in the American South’s African American food traditions. Traditionally, the greens may be slowly cooked with smoked pork, although smoked turkey is also commonly used. The long cooking process softens the sturdy greens and builds a savory broth often called potlikker. Try this recipe. […]

Just made this today. It’s fantastic. I added some special cajun herbs and spices and instead of vinegar I used a Louisiana hot sauce with vinegar.

OMG! These are the very best Collards I’ve ever cooked. I stuck right with your recipe, even though I wanted to add more salt,lol. The most time consuming thing was for me to clean the Collards and cut them. I didn’t only rid the stems, I also got rid of the ribs. The taste is so amazing. I thank you for sharing this wonderful recipe.
