3. *** if using salt pork cut into chunks and boil for about 20 min... just to make a broth.

6. put baking drippings in heavy bottom pan (I've used veggie oil before).... set on med and then add the remaining onion and garlic... skillet only needs to be warm when adding onion and garlic... turn skillet up to med/high and when hot add green beans after 3-4 minutes and 'fry'. make sure they all get oil on them..-.
