TEXAS ROADHOUSE GREEN BEANS (COPYCAT)



Texas Roadhouse Green Beans (Copycat) image

We really like these green beans at TRH and after a little searching found this recipe. Recipe is courtesy of WTVR, Richmond, VA. When a friend of mine started working there, I asked if this is how they prepare their green beans and she shook her head yes, but said no with a smile. I have included both variations for this recipe; choose the one to your liking. Cook/simmer time is approximate.

TEXAS-STYLE CROCK POT BRISKET AND BEANS



Texas-Style Crock Pot Brisket and Beans image

An easy way to make a nice brisket. The beans in this recipe are wonderful - sometimes I just make a big pot of the beans alone. Even though I love the convenience of my crock pot, I feel that cooking in the crock pot generally overcooks any meat. However, in this case, with brisket, it is pretty darn good, especially with the delicious beans on the side! I sometimes find that the liquid gets a little low, when it is cooking. If this occurs, you can do any of the following, as needed: double the sauce recipe to add later, add some bottled barbecue sauce, or add a can of beer. Enjoy!

2 cups water
1 tablespoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon pepper

Steps:

  • For Cooked Ham - Using a cutting board and a knife, dice the cooked ham into equal size pieces. - Place the diced ham and onions into the preheated cooking pan. - Using the large spoon, continue to stir the ham and onions until the ham is lightly brown and the onions are tender.
  • Now that the onions are tender add the liquid mixture and the beans.
  • Using a rubber spatula stir the mixture until incorporated.

Tips:

  • Soak the beans overnight. This will help to reduce the cooking time and make the beans more tender.
  • Use a variety of beans. This will add flavor and texture to the dish.
  • Add aromatics to the pot. This can include garlic, onion, celery, and carrots.
