Momma's Southern Ham and Beans (Sheree's version)

  1. *** SOAK BEANS OVERNIGHT...
  2. I go through them and remove any beans that look odd..... put in mixing bowl and cover with water and leave sit over night....
  3. I have also put on to boil and let hard boil for 15 min....TURN OFF..... cover for an hour in the water... then pour the water off....
  4. THIS CAN TAKE THE PLACE OF SOAKING THE BEANS....
