PERFECT SOUTHERN GREENS (KALE, BEET, COLLARD GREENS, MUSTARD)
This recipe yields the best tasting greens I have ever eaten! I have yet to have a batch of bitter greens when cooked this way. This recipe has the potential to change the minds of green-haters and may even bring about a cute southern accent. Blanching the greens before adding to the slow cooker helps remove the natural bitterness. I usually make it with kale and beet greens but other greens work as well. The greens pair well with pilsner or an off-dry riesling, especially if you use the balsamic vinegar.

Steps:
- Fill sink with cold water.
- Put in greens, making sure they have room to float.

- Scoop out greens being careful not to stir up the dirt on bottom.
- If they still look dirty, change water and repeat process.
- Finish the cleaning by rinsing under running water.
- Tear greens into pieces, throwing away thick veins and stems.

- Add the greens and toss well with bacon grease for a couple of minutes.

- Cover and simmer gently until very tender (DO NOT BOIL).
- As the greens cook, they will produce a lot of liquid that will cook down. Add water as needed to prevent burning, but only use what is necessary so your pot liquor won't be watered down.
- Cook time will vary but usually about 3 hours The flavor of collards is much better if you can cook for about 6 hours.
