Southern Collard Greens

Ingredients

2 sweet onions, finely chopped
2 smoked ham hocks, bone-in
4 cloves garlic, finely chopped
3 (32-ounce) containers chicken broth
3 (1-pound) packages collard greens, trimmed
1/3 cup apple cider vinegar
2 tablespoons white sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons salt, or to taste
3/4 teaspoon ground black pepper, or to taste

Directions

Combine the sweet onions, ham hocks, and garlic into a stockpot.

Add the chicken broth.

Cook the mixture on the stove-top over medium heat until the ham begins falling off the bone, about 2 hours.

Stir in the collard greens, vinegar, sugar, salt, and pepper.

Cook until the greens have reached the desired tenderness, about 2 hours.
