This dish is a summer family favorite! Goes well with steak or chicken. My family practically fights for the last spoonful! Ingredients:
4-5 cups fresh green beans, cut into 1-inch pieces |
1 lb. bacon |
2/3 cup white vinegar |
2/3 cup sugar |
2/3 cup bacon grease (approx.) |
salt, to taste |
Directions:
1. Cook bacon and reserve grease. Crumble cooked bacon into small pieces and reserve.
2. Steam beans in large pot for approx. 10 minutes, depending on how crisp you like your beans. Drain and set aside in a bowl.
3. In same large pot, combine vinegar, sugar, bacon grease, and bacon pieces. Bring to a boil, stirring frequently to help dissolve the sugar.
4. Reduce heat, carefully add beans, and stir to coat well.
5. Simmer on low heat for approx. 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
