Ingredients
- 1lb trimmed and washed collard greens(can sub mustard or turnip, if desired)
- 8 cups stock(chicken, veggie, pork, etc would all work... I use my own from when I smoke pork in my slow cooker, like here: Easy Smoked Meat)
- 8 cups water
- 2t liquid smoke(can use less if using a smoky stock)
- 1T chipotle Tabasco sauce(or adobo sauce)
- 1 large or 2 small lemons
- 1/2lb smoked bacon
- 2 medium onions, sliced in thin rings
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup sparkling wine or juice(I used a sparkling apple wine, as I used it, also, in this recipe; Marinated pork chops With Dijon Mushroom Cream Sauce , which I served with these greens :)
- 1/2 cup honey
- 2-3t kosher, sea or smoked salt(these will need a fair bit of salt...I used a rounded t, each, of applewood smoked salt and my favorite salt/pepper blend)
- fresh ground black pepper
