I cut up celery, onion, and garlic. Lightly brown in olive oil in a dutch oven pot. (this is optional)

Add one smoked ham hock with cracked black pepper and fill 3/4 or so with water. Bring up to a boil and simmer for appx 45 minutes to get a good broth.

Previously wash and clean your collard or turnip greens. If the leaves are big, then shread by hand. Add to pot and simmer for 45 minutes to an hour.

Put cooked greens in a bowl and top with the lean ham hock meat. That fat cap on the hock covers up some of the leanest pork around.

As with any recipe, salt and pepper to taste. The hock will have some salt in it so be careful.
