How to Make Boat House Collard Greens
- Wash and chop 2 lbs of collard greens, removing stems.
- Place the chopped collard greens in a large pot or Dutch oven.
- Add 8 cups of water to the pot.
- Bring the mixture to a boil over high heat. Once boiling, reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 1 hour.
- Add 1/4 cup brown sugar, 1/4 cup unsulphured molasses, 2 tablespoons hot sauce, 2 tablespoons whiskey, and 1 (1-pound) smoked ham hock to the pot.
- Bring the mixture back to a boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer for another hour.
- Reduce heat to the lowest setting and continue to simmer gently for 4-6 hours, or until the greens are incredibly tender. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
- During the last hour of cooking, add salt to taste. Start with 1 teaspoon and add more as needed.
