This Copycat Texas Roadhouse Green Beans is a great recipe. It’s just like the real Texas Roadhouse green beans. Southern-style green beans with bacon!
When a friend of mine started working at Texas Road House, I asked if this is how they prepare their green beans and she shook her head yes, but said no with a smile.
I have included both variations for this recipe; choose the one to your liking.
Cook/simmer time is approximate.

Lip-smacking good Texas Roadhouse Green Beans!
- 2 16 ounce cans green beans, drained
- 2 cups water
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper
- 4 ounces bacon diced (raw) or 4 ounces ham (cooked)
- 4 ounces diced onions
-
Using a colander, thoroughly drain green beans. Set aside.
-
Mix the water, sugar and pepper until well incorporated. Set aside.
-
Preheat your cooking pan to Medium High heat.
-
Using a cutting board and a knife, dice the raw bacon into equal size pieces. Place the diced bacon into the preheated cooking pan. Continually stir the bacon with a large spoon to keep the bacon from burning.
-
Once the bacon is cooked add the onions and cook until they are tender and light brown.
-
Using a cutting board and a knife, dice the cooked ham into equal size pieces. Place the diced ham and onions into the preheated cooking pan.
-
Using the large spoon, continue to stir the ham and onions until the ham is lightly brown and the onions are tender.
-
Now that the onions are tender add the liquid mixture and the beans.
-
Using the rubber spatula stir the mixture until incorporated.
-
Bring mixture to a boil and turn heat to simmer. Serve beans as soon as you are ready.
Enjoy!
