Sautéed Collard Greens With Slab Bacon

1. 1

   Cook bacon in a large wide pot over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until golden and crisp, about 15 minutes. Add onion, reduce heat to medium-low, and cook, stirring occasionally, until onion is softened and lightly golden, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook 1 minute.

2. 2

   Add collard greens. Increase heat to high and cook, stirring occasionally, until just wilted, about 8 minutes. Add vinegar and cook, stirring frequently, until liquid is almost evaporated, 5-7 minutes. Stir in sugar and 6 cups water; bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer until collard greens are tender, about 1 hour. Transfer to a platter and season with salt.

3. 3

   Collard greens can be cooked 2 days ahead; cover and chill. Warm in a covered large wide pot with 1-2 Tbsp. water over medium heat, about 8-10 minutes, just before serving.
