Crock Pot Ham Bone and Bean Soup

beans

ham bone (meaty)

carrots (medium - diced - optional)

onion (medium - diced)

garlic powder

black pepper

bay leaf (optional)

You may use one pound of dry beans or 48 oz. of pre-cooked beans.

If using dry beans, rinse 1 pound of navy or great northern dry beans. Pick through the beans for any stones or pebbles. Cover with water and allow to soak overnight.

Under running water, rinse any coating off a meaty ham bone. Also, scrape off any surface fat that you can. Add to a larger crock pot.

Dice 2 medium carrots, two ribs celery, and one medium onion. Carrot and celery are options but recommended.

Add the beans, carrots, celery, and onion to the crock pot. Add 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon pepper, and one bay leaf. Add 6 cups of water.

Cook on low for 8 hours total if precooked beans and 10 hours for dry beans.  Two hours before the end of cooking, remove ham bone to a cutting board. Allow the bone to cool for 10-15 minutes. Then remove all meat from the bone. Discard bone and any fat and waste.

Place meat back into the cooker and finish cooking. This is a good point to taste test for adding salt if needed.

Nana's Epic Navy Bean Ham Bone Soup

The Night Before: Place the dried beans in a large bowl and cover with three inches of water. Soak the dried beans overnight (up to 24 hours) to soften. Drain when ready to use.

Place a large 6 quart pot over medium heat. Add the oil, ham bone, onions, and garlic. Sauté for 3-5 minutes to soften the onions.

Then add in the drained beans, thyme, ground cumin, crushed red pepper, 10 cups of water, and any remaining ham scraps. (Do not salt the soup until the end, because ham bones can be very salty.)

Bring the soup to a boil. Lower the heat and simmer for 60-90 minutes, covered, until the beans are very soft. Uncover and stir occasionally, then place the lid back on top.

Use a fork to pull any remaining ham off the bone and stir it into the soup. Discard the bone. Add 1-2 cups additional water if the soup is too thick. Taste, then salt and pepper as needed.
