Well...I've never seen hog jowls at our local stores, so that's probably out. I substitute the bacon
to get the fat. And, after cooking the greens down the first time, and draining them, there seems to
be enough water left in them to cook, albeit slowly, for another hour or so. Never tried the beef
broth, but I wouldn't use more than a half cup or so.
You're right about letting them set. I usually make a batch witch will last about four big servings.
That last bowlful is always the best.
They are shrink wrap packed in the case where the salt pork and ham
hocks are at Publix. You get more smoky taste from them than bacon.
I'll look, but I don't think our Safeway carries them. Oh, and I meant to say, I never mix beef
broth and pork. If I need a liquid I'll use chicken broth. I think it goes better with pork. If I'm
making gravy to go with roast pork, for example, I'll use chicken broth. Works well.
