Ingredients:
- 2 tbsp bacon fat (bacon/duck/goose preferred) or 2 tbsp duck fat (bacon/duck/goose preferred) or 2 tbsp goose fat (bacon/duck/ goose preferred) or 2 tbsp butter (bacon/duck/goose preferred) or 2 tbsp lard (bacon/duck/goose preferred)
- salt & freshly ground black pepper , to taste
Directions:
- Prepare a large bowl of ice water; preheat your grill.
- Bring a large pot of water to a rolling boil and add the salt and fat.
- When salt is dissolved and fat is melted, add the collard greens to the boiling water and simmer for 3 minutes.
- Remove collards from the water and immediately plunge into the ice water to halt the cooking and preserve the beautiful green color.
- (When removed from the boiling water, the collards should be coated with the fat - that's what you want).
- Remove the collards from the ice water a leaf at a time and stack them flat on top of each other, about 7 to 9 leaves high.
- Oil your grill well and grill the stacked collard leaves until done, turning once, about 5 minutes per side (depending on the temperature of your grill).
- Cut stacked collards in half or quarters, season with salt and pepper, and serve immediately.
