Use good quality canned green beans because no need to cut corners here, I like a name brand with sea salt.; Thick cut bacon is best and as it cooks down for several hours, it will naturally shred into pieces.; You can make a bigger batch if you like, adding another can or two of green beans. Just add another cup of water to start, and maybe a little more of the other. There are so many main dish ideas to serve this along side, but I think a healthy set of southern style green beans goes great with Honey Garlic Chicken or Chicken Broccoli Cheese Casserole.
