Here's a tip from my mom. If you are going to use a ham bone for flavor, cook the ham bone in water & make the stock first. Then use it instead of cooking it all together. It will give a lot more room in the pot for veggies & it is a lot easier to remove bone & bits from stock then it is when its in the soup.

Hi:

Here is one my Dad used. He was from the south and brought up on Navy Bean Soup.

Navy Bean Soup with Ham

INGREDIENTS:
1 pound navy beans
2 quarts boiling water
2 ham hocks or a meaty ham bone
1/4 cup chopped onion
1/2 cup chopped celery
chopped ham or ham from the meaty bone
salt and pepper to taste (I add a little seasoned salt along with regular)

PREPARATION:
Wash beans; place in a large bowl and add boiling water. Let beans soak for a few hours. Simmer ham bone or hocks with the beans until beans are tender. Remove bones and chop ham. Add chopped onions and celery.

Add water to make about 1 gallon. Add ham meat, salt, and pepper to taste. Cook about 30 minutes longer.

Serves Approx. 12 or more.

Have fun cooking the soup and then enjoy your efforts!

Soak the beans overnight is best way to start. Then when cooking add about an inch to two inches of water over the beans, depending on how thick you want it. Season it with salt and pepper at least. Add any or all of the following, onion, garlic, any cut of pork, butter, or a bit of potato. To kick it up you can add some chili, cumin, different peppers, or even tabasco to taste. Cook them until tender, you may have to add water occasionally. Don't forget to respice about 10-15 minutes before serving.
