I've been making this on my stove for years and just tried the slow cooker (7 hours on low was perfect for the green beans). I had never added chicken broth before, and it made a great dish even better! Thanks!

This recipe was tasteless and boring. It smelled great, but was a disappointment. If others like it, that's great.

I've made this twice now and it's always a hit. I used cubed ham chunks this time, but last time, I think just used some bacon drippings. Everything else was the same as what was in the recipe.

OMG!! These were delicious! I started them at work and cooked them throughout the day. It took a little longer to cook than the recipe said because the ham hocks weren't tender enough at the end of two hours so I didn't take them out when I put the potatoes in. I didn't have an onion either. I took them to a Thanksgiving dinner for the airmen that live in the dorm, they were a HIT!!!! I brought the crockpot home empty;)

We really didn't think this recipe had much flavor at all. If I'd had any ham base on hand I would have added it---but I didn't. All leftovers were thrown away. We like all the ingredients but were not pleased with the final product.

These were good, but it would save time and energy to just use cubed ham. The broth is really good and it's a yummy way to use up green beans. I came home with 2 lbs. of them by accident-at the busy farmer's market, I was given the wrong bag! My husband really liked it.

This was excellent! Even my little ones, who are extremely picky, loved this. I put everything in at once and cooked it 10 hrs as recommended in other reviews. Was a little worried the potatoes might get mushy, but they didn't at all! Will be a perfect meal for cool fall evenings.

I had so many green beans I didn't know what to do with them. This recipe was excellent and a favorite now in my family. I saved the broth this recipe produces and used it in soup later.

Thanks for the recipe! I put this in the slow cooker around 7:30am and left it in all day long. We ate around 6:30 and it was very good! I used chopped Ham Steak instead of hocks and put the potatoes in mid-morning - we ate it with a loaf of warm crusty baquette and it was perfect for a chilly evening!

Made this yesterday. I stuck with the recipe pretty much except I added a little Creole seasoning and I cooked it on the stove. This is very good. Reminds me of my grandmothers cooking. A real keeper, Thanks!

These were the best green beans I have ever eaten! I was short on time and as another reviewer suggested, I simmered the green beans on the stove for 25-30 minutes. Added the potatoes (I used 2-2 1/2 lbs) and simmered for another 30-40 minutes. Absolutely perfect. This recipe is a keeper!

Very easy recipe. I made it with smoked sausage instead of ham. I put the green beans, potatoes and onions in the crock pot and cooked it on low for 8 hours. I added the smoked sausage for the last 2 hours. When I make it again, I will only add 1/2 an onion. We will try ham the next time!

My family loves this meal too! I love it because it's so easy to make and it is so good. When we don't have fresh green beans, I buy and use frozen ones. Tastes just as good! Instead of the seasonings used here, I use Liptons Savory Herb & Garlic Soup mix and mix it in water to cook them in. Could also use chicken broth to cook it in.

Yummy! We were pleasantly surprised by how good this was! Didn't have ham hocks, so we used about 2 cups of chopped ham steaks instead. Also, doubled up on the chicken bouillon. We let it cook on low for nearly 10 hours & it was DELICIOUS!! This one's a keeper!
