Pour the chicken broth and apple cider vinegar over the greens. Add the crushed red pepper flakes, smoked paprika, and sugar (if using). Season with salt and black pepper. Drizzle olive oil over the top for added richness (optional).
Slow Cook:
Cover the slow cooker and cook on low for 6-8 hours, or on high for 3-4 hours, until the ham hocks are tender and the collard greens are soft and flavorful.
Serve:
Once done, remove the ham hocks from the crock pot. Shred the meat and discard the bones and skin. Return the meat to the greens, stir, and adjust seasoning if needed. Serve hot and enjoy!
