Rinse beans; drain; dry in a clean dish towel.
Cook bacon in a large saucepan until crisp. Add green beans to the saucepan; cook on medium heat, tossing well to coat in bacon drippings until beans turn bright green, about 3 minutes. Slowly add the broth; season with the salt and pepper; bring to a simmer. Cover.
Simmer on low with the lid cracked a bit, stirring occasionally, until beans are tender, about 1 hour.
Adjust seasonings, to taste. Transfer to serving bowl.
Serve.
10 servings.
