Time 4h30m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 pounds fresh green beans, rinsed and trimmed

3 ham hocks
1 ½ pounds new potatoes, quartered
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon seasoning salt
1 tablespoon chicken bouillon granules
ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Halve beans if they are large, place in a slow cooker with water to barely cover, and add onion and ham hocks. Cover, and cook on High until simmering. Reduce heat to Low, and cook for 2 to 3 hours, or until beans are crisp but not done.

  • To serve, use a slotted spoon to put beans, potatoes, and ham into a serving dish with a little broth.

  • Serve the dish immediately: This is a dish that is best enjoyed fresh. The vegetables will start to lose their flavor if they sit for too long.
