These were the best green beans that I have ever had. They carmelized nicely towards the end of cooking and turned out perfect. This recipe is adapted from The Pioneer Woman's Best Green Beans Ever (http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/ree-drummond/the-best-green-beans-ever-recipe.html#). I can see why she calls them that. She used chicken broth but I had some beef broth in the fridge that needed using and it still turned out wonderful.
