Why make canned green beans when these are so easy and taste just like the restaurants. Make one batch and they are just as good left over. There is one thing I'm always requested to make at Thanksgiving, and this is it. I also like to cook these over a campfire.. either way works. Personally, we like these with amount of pepper as listed, but your tastes may differ. You may have to experiment with the amount of salt & pepper. You can try fresh bacon, but I find that it contains too much grease and not a lot of flavor, The bagged pre-cooked bacon pieces (like you would use for salads) works great. Ingredients:
2 lbs fresh green beans |
1 large yellow onion, diced |
2 tablespoons salt (to taste) |
2 tablespoons coarse black pepper (to taste) |
1 cup bacon, pieces (pre-cooked, not bacon bits) |
water |
Directions:
1. Snap off green bean ends, then snap in half.
2. In large stock pot, add all ingredients, adding just enough water to cover green beans.
3. Cover pot and simmer for about 2 hours. Green beans are done when fork tender.
