Here's what I put on the stove last night during the game.
Ingredients:
2 lbs.dry Great Northern beans
1lb.Andoullie
1/4 lb. pork roast,chopped
1 big arse smoked ham hock
1 large onion,diced
6 cloves garlic,chrushed
3 bay leases
1 habanero pepper
1/2 T each Thyme,Basil, and Oregano
salt to taste
parsley

Method:
Soaked and drained the beans.Browned the sausage and roast in a black iron pot.Added the onion and browned, then added the garlic for another 2 minutes of sauteing.Added beans and 12 cups water, all seasonings, and the ham hock. Simmered until the 4th quarter...about 2 hours...mashed some of the beans to get a ceamy gravy....damn good. Wish I'd had some green onions.

I've cooked more than a few meals with some Pucheu's from your home town.

In my white beans I always add just a pinch of cinammon. Total different dimension. Also with red and white beans I add a stick of butter at the end and stir in. Adds a richness and sheen to the beans.

Never tried the cinammon,but I will.I've added the butter before, and it's a great touch.But, I'm damn near 48, and I know I already had enough fat in this dish.

Well you aren't suppossed to eat the whole pot. I like the navy beans. Smaller than the great northerns.

I also like the lady cream peas. Might cook a pot of them today to go with my other stuff.

I don't need beans in this boiler....I perculate well on various fuel sources.

Sounds great except I would do one small thing differently. Andoullie is smoked, already cooked. I wouldn't brown it with the pork roast. I'd add it later in the simmering process.

Try the Navy Beans (Peas); smaller and tend to cream easier than Northern (if you like creole style beans) with pickled pork and chicken stock... Bell pepper is always a great flavor in white beans.

Not sure...but I'd try this. Drain the gravy into a boiler, and some water and beef boullion, or beef stock, and reseason with salt, garlic, etc.(just no more pepper!). Thicken with corn starch and water. When you've rebuilt the gravy, add to the roast and eat a plate for me.

I like it, it's fine, but I know what Ms. OleGeauxt is gonna say... "Why do you always have to make everything so hot"?...
