2 pounds fresh green beans, ends trimmed and snapped in half
2 pounds yellow potatoes, scrubbed and cut into quarters
6 cups low-sodium chicken broth
Directions
Layer the ingredients in the slow cooker: Place the smoked ham hocks in the bottom of a large slow cooker (5–7 quarts). Scatter the quartered yellow potatoes over the ham, then add the trimmed green beans on top.
Pour in the broth: Slowly pour the chicken broth over everything in the slow cooker. The liquid should mostly cover the potatoes and beans; it’s okay if a few pieces peek out, as they’ll cook down.
Cover and cook: Put the lid on the slow cooker and cook on LOW for 7 to 8 hours, or on HIGH for 4 to 5 hours, until the ham is very tender, the green beans are soft, and the potatoes are easily pierced with a fork.
