Instructions

  1. In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add diced onion, minced garlic, and paprika, and sauté until the onions are translucent.
  2. Add the smoked ham hock to the pot along with broth. If liquid doesn't cover the ham hock, add enough water to cover it.
  3. Reduce heat to a simmer and cook for about 1 to 2 hours until the meat is falling off the bone.
  4. Stir in collard greens, apple cider vinegar, sugar, salt, and black pepper. Simmer until the collard greens are tender, another 1 to 2 hours.
  5. Adjust seasoning as needed and serve hot. Sprinkle with red pepper flakes if using.
