  Green Beans Southern Style

Ingredients:
2 lb Green beans, trimmed and washed
1 large White onion, chopped
1 Green (Bell) pepper, chopped
1/2 lb Sliced smoked bacon, cut into squares
Salt (it won't need much)
And black pepper to taste
6 small New potatoes, (about the
Size of golf balls),opt'l
Instructions:
If the beans are very small and tender, leave them whole. Otherwise,
cut in half lengthwise (known for some obscure reason as
"Frenching"), and cut the individual beans into bite-sized lengths.

Place the beans, onion, pepper, bacon into a large stewing pot. Cover
with water. Cover the pot, and cook on low heat until the beans are
very tender (2-3 hours is about right -- these are NOT supposed to be
crisp). About 30 minutes before serving, add the potatoes if used,
and season to taste. Don't worry about overcooking the beans, you
can't -- they're supposed to be a dull green and very tender
:-)

Serve the beans, along with a generous portion of the liquid, and the
potatoes, if used. This may be used as an accompaniment for any
Southern-style meal, or may serve, with cornbread or biscuits on the
side, as a meal itself.
