I'm a meat and potatoes guy myself, but do love me some good home cooked collards with lard and fatback then drizzled with pepper vinegar. Craig
Oh, I bet they do. We used to have neighbors that had a farm in Lumberton. They would live/work here all week then head there for the weekends. I miss those pickled peppers, watermelons, greens and good ole neighbors!
I've never eaten a "collard" in my life. Makes me shiver just to think about it. I'm originally from VA, and I don't remember anyone fixing it, ever. :lol:
I spent Saturday afternoon freezing 8 quarts. I do not like them chopped to bits like a lot of restaurants do.
Thanks everybody! I work right down the road from Mr. Lee's place so when I make a "bank run" today I'll try to stop by there. Brenda
Well yeah....your whole house does smell like 20 men have eaten chili beans, drank beer while watching a football game after you cook collards. :lol:
I agree with Harleygirl. I ain't putting nothing in my mouth that smells that bad. Yuck! I'd rather eat grass than collards. My mama cooks them things and it stinks up her whole house. Ewww!!!!
collards - yuck, gross, disgusting, - DH asked me to fix them once, being from VA i had no idea what they were - first and only time i fixed them, the smell ran my dogs out the house.
I've never cooked them, and probably never will but a little secret to know to eliminate the smell throughout the house, put 2 pecans in the pot while your cooking them and this usually does the trick on that smell.
Did you find any collards, if not call, 919-894-4004, ask for Dale $1.00 each, put in your order and he will bring them to his work(J&J Auto Parts, in Benson) and you them pick up there, ummmm GOOD:-D
