Wow!! Thank you for your awesome support and kind words. Do you know that you’re the first person that came to my channel that knows about old school cooking nobody believes that you could just put water in your greens and get the best broth ever.!! I was taught how to cook by my grandmother, but sometimes I don’t like to do her recipes because the bigger RUclipsrs take my recipes and go viral and I get very little views but I know that I’m going to be able to show all my subscribers how to put love in food very soon thank you again. I truly appreciate your comment and I’m going to pin this comment on my channel🙏🏽🥰

Thank you!! I always pick my greens. I grew up with salt pork or ham hocks but later I learned to use bacon ends, chicken broth, a pinch of baking soda (makes the greens so tender!)
Yes I know people who use chicken broth but your right about baking soda although winter collard's don't need it they're so much better than the summer one's.
My first introduction to real " Soul " food was while serving in the Military and stationed in Gulf Port Mississippi. On my off duty time I would often go into town to basically relax. During my time in Mississippi I made friends with a Black Family who's Father was a Barber on our base. I was invited to have dinner with them and I've never tasted better 👍❤ I'm 77 and obviously retired these days but I'll never forget the kindness and generosity that family showed to me.
Hello Gary thank you for the awesome support and kind words. Your comment put love In my heart and tears down my face because this comment is absolutely amazing. I wish I could get a million more subscribers like you. This is such a touching and loving comment. My birthday is coming up and I hope you would join me live on my birthday.
Praise almighty God for collard greens and mustard greens cornbread Black eyed peas and Kool-Aid. And last but not least. The beautiful sister who showed us how her grandmother prepared for collard. Thank you very much. And also your grandmother as well. And God bless forever
My mother used salt pork to season her collards. She fried the grease out of them and used that! After cooking they were chopped up with a fork & knife. The best! I miss you mama
Great video sis! I’m just seeing this video..and thanks for the shout out..your subscribers will forever appreciate you sharing your dear grandmother old landmark style of cooking that will stand the test of time 🥰 Merry Christmas and I’m so looking forward to the new years for what God got to offer for all of our friends and family in 2024 if it’s his will😇🙏🏾 love you my sweet dear sister in Christ ❤️🥰🙏🏾😇🎄🎄
I love greens but cant do hammocks.Can I use smoked turkey ? I like how you cut your greens . thank you...much appreciated. Your very patient in explaining everything. 👍
Don’t the ham hocks need to be tender falling off the bone almost before u add the greens cause the greens will be done and the ham hock won’t be done? Just asking. I cook my ham hocks tender before adding greens.
I always cook them first until tender and the fat is rendered, remove from the broth set aside to cool then remove all the meat and add back to the broth and greens.
Thank you for this awesome comment I truly appreciate great comments like this. I do my best for old lady.😂 I’m making greens in the crockpot today with some turkey smoked turkey and I’m going to make me some cornbread. Thank you again. Have an amazing day and a great weekend.👍🏽🙏🏽
They look so delish! Can't wait to try your method. I have made them many times but always looking for a different way. I'd like to see your method of washing. Hopefully you have an easier way than mine. It's back breaking. My mom put salt in the water when washing. She said the bugs, ( if any) would slide off along with any sand. How do you do it? Thanks!
Kick it up a notch and replace the hammocks with country ham!! Cut the country ham into silver dollar size pieces and fry it in some bacon grease. Then put that in the greens. Deglaze bottom of skillet where you fried country hams with a little water then pour that flavor into the greens too.

Collards are my favorite. My mom use to fry them and they were so GOOD. I also noticed they would have a sweet taste after the 1st frost would fall on them. (My mom grew a big garden) Thank you for sharing 🙏🏿
You fry them to concentrate the flavour of the greens until they wilt down and watch you don’t use too much water. It’s a balance of whether you want a lot of pot liquor or to have more flavourful greens.
@@MrBbaker57you can't tell these so called pros about this. I definitely know about this because no water is really necessary. Pure common sense!✌🏽♥️😊
I thoroughly wash my hammocks and pressure cook them about 50 minutes (saves time), and add them with its liquid to my seasoned greens. Some greens take longer to tenderize than others so cooking time varies.
I’m so happy I found your video!! I just made these today for the first time ever and they came out heavenly. My husband and I loved them! Thank you for posting! 😊

Just came across your channel! My grandma and mom cook the best greens. I never seem greens cook this way. It looks so so good! Everything you're doing makes a lot of sense. I would have loved sitting at the table with your grandma and family eating some of her greens and cornbread. I haven't cook greens in a long time. When my late husband was living he was on a salt free diet. I know not very tasty at all. He was on it so long before he passed I've adapted to his diet. Even today I barely and salt to my diet. I don't care to eat out much because most prepare foods are extremely salty to me. I don't do much cooking at all anymore. I will be cooking those greens in a small amount.

I made these collard green yesterday(06/24/2024)I went directly by your instructions, as I put them a pan with bacon grease and watching the cook down the light came on, my Mom used to par boil in water with baking soda to tenderize them I had forgotten all about that, but I like your way of frying them down , was very good.

Hello, Dear, This is exactly what I was looking for--Old fashioned - simply delicious collard greens. Nothing fancy. If it ain't broke, don't fix it! Okay! Thank you! happy Thanksgiving!
You don't need a lot of water to cook the greens. I use a forth of a boiler and allow the water inside the greens to finish with the moisture needed to cook the greens quicker.
@@dawnmatthew7933 I hae given it some thought and watching the other shows has given me a good frame work for doing it in a manner that is less annoying. I'm thinking about it. Why do you ask that question?
Another thing I think about when cooking greens, is to learn to not necessarily use meat, because I would like to enjoy the natural taste of the greens, by using jalapeno pepper, vinegar, one or two chicken bullion cubes, two tablespoons of sugar to take the bitterness away from the greens, and butter. It magnifies the natural and wonderful taste of the greens themselves.
We love collards and cook them at least once a month. I’m going to give your recipe a try, we don’t use ham hocks but I’ll use your exact recipe. Those greens look delicious. Thank you
Hello Emma Harwell good to see you in my comments I truly appreciate you so much I paid $1.29 a pound for those greens at Kroger some of the stores are charging more than that but greens are on the rise thank you again and you have an amazing day and a great week👍🏽🥰🍋
I am 72 years and none of the women who taught me to cook cut their.greens.We picked them an then we tore them into medium pieces.We cooked the hammocks for hours first.All those women who taught me to cook were from Texas and Louisiana.In fact we tore all leafy greens cabbage,spinach,kale,Swiss Chard.
Good afternoon Mama Ray Ray on this marvelous Monday. I smell those Collards and ham hock. Look at them boiling. Yes What you cooking with them fried chicken, cornbread and yams? Delicious

People commenting on cooking hocks - you said boil them ten minutes and drain water - and refill with everything but greens boil at least 1 1/2 hours (so how are they not tender - pay attention - good video 😎
Hello 👋🏾 and thank you for your awesome support and kind words. I’m going to go back and listen to the video and see how I can correct it. Thank you again and have an amazing day and a great week.🙏🏽👍🏽
My mama used to make various greens back on our farm in the 50s, but my favorite was collards. I still eat them today, but just from a can. Not the same tho.
Thank you for the awesome support and kind words I hope you get to try the recipe. You will absolutely love it. Those collard greens are very tasty with that pot liquor👍🙏🏼🤗
we eat the stems with the greens.we puy the greens in a pressure cooker along with neck bones and some olive oil and a little suger and 30 minutes later they are ready to eat
If you don't overload them with bacon fat, greens are very healthy for you, mustard greens, kale, collard greens, beet greens. My grandmother used to chop up some bacon, fry it and cook her greens in with the bacon and bacon fat.
Now I'm learning to make Turnip Green Soup with Northern beans and smoked sausage. Next will be "Collared Green Gumbo". These recipes are on the internet🥬🫘🍤
Looks so good. Gunna go see if there is a cleaning video. Needed a refresher since its been years i cooked them. We grow some yummy greens here in AK ❤

@@ToniJordan-z8m you put noodles in greens??
That looks good and easy thanks Mama Ray Ray for another cooking idea
Thank you so much for your awesome support ❤
I did exactly what you did on a video cooked. It came up. Perfect. You’re very good. Cook very good personality too.
Aww Thank You So much 😊 wow you made my Day with this Comment thank you again you are awesome 😎
Looks delicious. Could you please use a vegetable stock in place of the water?
You can also use smoked turkey parts and smoked neckbones. Everyone has their own preference.
People commenting on cooking hocks - you said boil them ten minutes and drain water - and refill with everything but greens boil at least 1 1/2 hours (so how are they not tender - pay attention - good video 😎
Hello 👋🏾 and thank you for your awesome support and kind words. I’m going to go back and listen to the video and see how I can correct it. Thank you again and have an amazing day and a great week.🙏🏽👍🏽
My mama used to make various greens back on our farm in the 50s, but my favorite was collards. I still eat them today, but just from a can. Not the same tho.
Those greens looked absolutely delicious and the pot liquor - oh yeah, a BIG BOWL please!! ❤❤😊😊
Thank you again, Margaret are you in Michigan? 👍🏽💕

Hello Margaret do you know me (Raynetta )?
This is some genuine Americana. I'd like to try it sometime. Thank you for the video!
Thank you for the awesome support and kind words I hope you get to try the recipe. You will absolutely love it. Those collard greens are very tasty with that pot liquor👍🙏🏼🤗
Your collard greens looks delicious😋 Perfect for a Sunday Dinner 💕
Oh yes Jesus, mama Ray yummy. I from NC yes southern food
Any southern cook worth their salt knows how to cook greens. Greens beans cornbread green onion and tomato great meal
we eat the stems with the greens.we puy the greens in a pressure cooker along with neck bones and some olive oil and a little suger and 30 minutes later they are ready to eat
I've never actually had collard greens before but these look super delicious Mama Ray, I definitely need to try them at some point
Hopefully, this Thanksgiving
They are delicious 🤤😋 the only ones I eat
If you don't overload them with bacon fat, greens are very healthy for you, mustard greens, kale, collard greens, beet greens. My grandmother used to chop up some bacon, fry it and cook her greens in with the bacon and bacon fat.
Now I'm learning to make Turnip Green Soup with Northern beans and smoked sausage. Next will be "Collared Green Gumbo". These recipes are on the internet🥬🫘🍤
Now that sounds good and never heard of fried green before cooking only my personal opinion to many steps
Girl please,I ain't never seen all that.boil your hocks in water and white vinegar, until tender drain the water, and then build your collard greens.
Looks delicious and cooked perfectly the recipe is spot on.❤
Thank You so so much 🥰
I use honey baked hambone with meat attached, brown sugar for 45mins/ one hr…. Outstanding!!
Looks so good. Gunna go see if there is a cleaning video. Needed a refresher since its been years i cooked them. We grow some yummy greens here in AK ❤
