Instructions
Cook bacon in a large Dutch oven over medium heat until crispy. Using a slotted spoon, remove bacon, and let drain on paper towels. Reserve
¼ cup drippings in pot.
Add garlic and onion, and cook for
2 minutes, stirring often. Add greens in handfuls, cooking until wilted before adding more. Add brown sugar, salt, red pepper, and vinegar. Stir until well combined, and reduce heat to medium-low. Cook for
15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Add bacon and peas, and cook until greens are tender, about 15 minutes more. Serve immediately over rice. Garnish with crushed red pepper,
if desired.
