Clean the collard greens thoroughly, taking your time to remove all grit.

Cut the collard greens into pieces.

Soak the collard greens over and over to ensure they are grit-free before adding them to the pot liquor.

Add the cleaned collard greens to the deeply seeped pot liquor juice that started with the smoked turkey.

Incorporate bacon, onion, and several spices into the pot.

Cook until the flavors meld together, creating a silky, delicious braised flavor.
