This is my favorite green bean recipe. It is from Justin Wilson's (who
now rests with El Grande) Gourmet and Gourmand cookbook:

2 lbs. fresh snap beans
1/2 cup olive oil
2 slices thick bacon, cubed
2 medium sized onions, chopped
1 small clove garlic, chopped
3 or 2 cups dry white wine
1 TBS. Lea & Perrins Worcestershire sauce
Louisiana hot sauce (cayenne)
salt
water, if needed

Snap and clean the beans. Pour the olive oil into a pot big enough to
hold all the beans with ease. Put bacon in olive oil and fry until soft,
not brown. Add beans, onions, garlic and wine. Add Lea & Perrins and
season with Louisiana hot sauce to taste. Approximately 1 to 2 teaspoons
should do. After beans have become tender, salt to taste and cook until
done to your taste. Serves 8.

Dot's notes: I find this recipe works really well in a crock pot. It is
simple, doesn't take any fussing and you can forget all about it while
you prepare the rest of your holiday dinner. Chile-Heads will, of
course, want to add their preferred hot sauce in a quantity greater than
2 teaspoons! Enjoy!
