      Title: Crockpot Collard Greens
 Categories: Tested, Easy
      Yield: 4 Servings
 
      8 oz Collard greens; (actual
           -weight minus veins)
      2 tb Baco's (optional); could
           -use diced ham, bacon bits,
           -or ham hock
    1/4 ts Kosher salt
    1/4 ts Ground black pepper
    1/8 ts Red pepper flakes
    1/2 ts Hot pepper sauce
      1 tb Butter or bacon fat;
           -omit if using ham hock
      1 pn Brown sugar
      1 tb Cider vinegar
      3 c  Water
      1 pn Brown sugar
 
  Wash collard greens. Remove center vein and then roll leaves up
  like a cigar. Slice thinly and toss into crockpot with out
  bothering to unroll any clumps.
  
  If using ham hock, place in crockpot then add greens.
  
  Place remaining ingredients into crockpot and stir.
  
  Cover crockpot and cook on high for 3 - 4 hours until greens are
  tender. Stir occasionally. Check to make sure liquid does not
  evaporate.
  
  Tested this recipe in 3 quart crockpot - worked just fine. Greens
  were tender in three hours.
  
  Check every hour to see that water level is still okay.
  
  Would cut in half to get just servings for two. When weighing
  greens at store allow for heavy vein to be tossed away. If making
  half of recipe might use 1-1/2 quart crockpot.
  
  Variation of recipe from CD Kitchen.com/recipies
  
  Tested 1/10. Will do again. Increase or decrease collard greens
  depending on your needs. Will have to experiment to see if larger
  amounts of greens in larger crockpot will take longer or not.
