Fried Collard Greens for New Years Day!

Hey Guy’s! Welcome back to my channel. In today’s video I’m going to show you how to make Southern Fried Collard Greens for your New Years Day Dinner. My traditional New Year’s meal usually consists of Black-eyed Peas Collard Greens and some type of Pork. This year I’m starting my cooking early so I can make sure that we have all of our family favorites and I won’t be worn out from all of the cooking. I bought my Collard Greens from Ingles Supermarket and they were good and fresh. I put my Turkey tails in the crockpot yesterday so the broth would be ready to go. Now let’s get started with the recipe. Fried Collard Greens: 1 Pack Smoked Turkey Tails, cook them in a crockpot the day before you want to cook your greens 2 Large Bunches Fresh Collard Greens, cut and washed throughly 8 Strips of Bacon 2 Teaspoons Sugar Salt and Pepper to taste 1 Teaspoon Crushed Red Pepper Flakes Using a large cast iron skillet fry the bacon. Once the bacon is done remove from the skillet and set it aside. With the skillet still hot add the collards to it with the grease from the bacon and the dripping still in there. Add all of the collards then place a lid on top so that they can start sweating down to decrease in size. Cook over medium heat. After about 5 minutes add the sugar, salt and pepper and red pepper flakes. Add broth from the smoked turkey tails. Let simmer for 10 to 15 minutes. At the point where you can look at the greens and see that all of the water had been released from them and the stems are good and tender you will not need to use the lid anymore. If you leave the lid on and cook the greens too long they will become mushy just like cabbage does when overcooked. Check the liquid and stir the greens so that everything is cooking evenly. Add more broth as needed. Cook until the greens are your desired tenderness adding additional seasonings to suit your own taste. Make it your own. The whole cooking time shouldn’t be more than 45 minutes to an hour. Once done add the turkey tail meat to the greens if you like it like I do . If not just eat the greens. Enjoy!
