Best cooked outdoors over a hardwood fire, this can also be accomplished on the stovetop.

Heat lard or oil in a large Dutch oven over medium heat. Add flank steak and cook, turning from time to time, until seared on all sides. Add about one cup of water and simmer until water has evaporated; allow meat to brown again. Repeat this process at least 4 (up to 10) times until meat is tender and flavorful.

Add one more cup of water, simmer for two minutes, and add fresh greens. Simmer while slowly stirring until all greens are coated with cooking liquid and have wilted. Cook until greens are tender to personal preference, 5 to 20 minutes. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt, pepper, and hot sauce. Serve at once with hot corn bread.
