Step 1

Rinse and sort beans.

Step 2

In a large Dutch oven over medium heat, cook bacon until crisp.

Step 3

Add chopped onion to bacon grease in the pot, and cook until soft, about 5 minutes.

Step 4

Add the beans, ham hock or seasoning meat, and enough water or broth to cover the beans.

Step 5

Bring to a boil, and then reduce heat and simmer for 2 to 3 hours, stirring occasionally, until beans are tender. Keep beans covered while cooking, by adding more liquid as necessary.

Step 6

If using ham hock, remove from pot. If desired, chop or shred ham, discarding skin, bones and cartilage, and stir ham back into beans.

Step 7

Season to taste and serve hot.
