This crockpot green beans and potatoes recipe is easy to make in your slow cooker. I make this dish often, but I have never measured the ingredients, so this recipe is a reasonable approximation. Freeze the leftover cooking liquid and add it to bean soup, ham and cabbage dishes, or use it to boil dumplings. It's delicious!

Ingredients

  • 2 pounds fresh green beans , rinsed and trimmed
  • 3 hams hocks
  • 1 large onion , chopped
  • 1.5 pounds new potatoes , quartered
  • 1 tablespoon chicken bouillon granules
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon seasoning salt
  • ground black pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. 1

    Gather the ingredients.

  2. 2

    Halve green beans if they are large; place in a slow cooker with water to barely cover. Add ham hocks and onion. Cover and cook on High until simmering. Reduce heat to Low; cook until beans are crisp but not done, 2 to 3 hours.

  3. 3

    Remove ham hocks from the slow cooker. Add potatoes to the slow cooker; cook on Low for 45 minutes.

  4. 4

    Meanwhile, remove ham meat from the bones, then chop or shred meat and return to the slow cooker. Season with bouillon, garlic powder, onion powder, seasoning salt, and pepper.

  5. 5

    Use a slotted spoon to transfer green beans, potatoes, and ham into a serving dish with a bit of broth.
