Instructions

🎙️ Cook with voice coach

Soak Beans overnight in plenty of water. Drain and rinse.
In a large pot or Dutch oven, combine Beans, Pork, Aromatics, and enough water to cover by 2 inches.
Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 6-8 hours, or until beans are tender. Stir occasionally, adding more water if needed.
In a small bowl, whisk together Seasoning ingredients.
Add Seasoning to the beans during the last hour of cooking. Stir well.
Continue to simmer for another hour, allowing the flavors to meld.
