Steps:
- In a large pot, fill with enough water to just cover ham hocks and bring to a boil. Cover and simmer 45 minutes. Add beans and sugar and continue cooking another 25 minutes. Add potatoes and salt and cook until potatoes are tender, about 20 minutes more. Remove hocks from pot and remove meat from the bone. Add meat back to the pot, add salt and pepper, to taste, and serve.
SMOKY NEW POTATOES AND GREEN BEANS
Gina: Green beans and new potatoes, simmered with some type of pork fat, are a classic Southern combination. This dish is one we both grew up on, and when we cook it at home, the smoky aroma of these simmering vegetables instantly transports us to our mothers' kitchens. There are few flavors more satisfying to any Southerner than the taste of tender new potatoes and green beans that have absorbed the salty, porky goodness of a smoked ham hock.

Steps:
- Place the ham hocks in a large pot, and add enough water just to cover, then bring the water to a boil. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 1 1/2 hours, skimming any scum that rises to the surface, until the ham hocks are very tender and the meat is falling away from the bone. Add the green beans, sugar, and salt to the pot and continue cooking, stirring occasionally, for another 25 minutes. Add the potatoes and Smash Seasoning to the pot, and cook until the potatoes are tender, about 20 minutes more.
- Remove the ham hocks from the pot. Discard the leathery skin (it should pull off easily), and, using a fork, pull the meat from the bone. Coarsely chop the meat, and add it back to the pot. Taste for seasonings, and then serve with hot sauce, if desired.
SLOW COOKER GREEN BEANS, HAM AND POTATOES
I make this dish often; I have never really measured the ingredients, but can give you a reasonable approximation. Note: Freeze leftover cooking liquid, and then add to bean soup, ham or cabbage dishes, or use to cook dumplings in. It's delicious!

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.
- Add potatoes, and cook for another 45 minutes. While potatoes are cooking, remove ham hocks from slow cooker, and remove meat from bones. Chop or shred meat, and return to slow cooker. Season with garlic powder, onion powder, seasoning salt, bouillon, and pepper. Cook until potatoes are done, then adjust seasoning to taste.
- To serve, use a slotted spoon to put beans, potatoes, and ham into a serving dish with a little broth.

SOUTHERN GREEN BEANS, HAM & POTATOES
I love homemade ham & green beans with potatoes, served with a skillet of cornbread and sweet tea! For this recipe, I took two "soul-food" recipes I had and combined them to come up with this one. It's just the way I like it. You can adjust the amounts of ingredients to your own taste. If I use ham hocks, I usually only add one or two slices of bacon for added flavor, just because I like bacon flavor. But if I don't have ham hocks, I use 4- 6 slices of bacon.

NEW POTATOES, GREEN BEANS AND HAM
This recipe was given to me by my Mother-in-law who raised 9 children and taught school for 40 years and didn't have much time to cook. It remains a family favorite with my children. Last night I had no broth, so I mixed Lipton's Garlic and Herb soup (1 packet) and 4 cups of water and it was wonderful, really added richness to the broth.

Steps:
- I cook this in a crockpot all day, but may be cooked in a dutch oven on the stove, also.
- Add all the ingredients and cover, cook on low for 8 to 10 hours.
- If cooking on the stove you may need more broth, but the crockpot makes broth as it cooks, so you shouldn't need any more.
- Use your own judgement on the amount of broth.
- Serve with fresh, sliced tomatoes and corn bread for a great Southern meal.

GREEN BEANS AND HAM HOCKS
It has been cold and snowing here. Just the right weather for soups and comfort food. These green beans and ham hocks are so good. They do not need any added spices or seasoning but you can add them if you desire. There is no need to add salt to these since the ham hocks/shanks are already salty. I am sensitive to pepper so I did not add any to these but you can if you want to. I just don't know how much to add. They can be served as a meal with cornbread or as a side dish with meat This can easily be turned into soup by adding other vegetables. Cook time varies according to your crockpot. When I lower my 3.5 quart crockpot to low, it does not boil or even simmer so I cook these on high the whole time. Stovetop method time is approximate. These smell so good while they cook.
