I'm making Ham & Beans on this chilly autumn night. How do you make yours?

First, while prepping the beans... I make a broth of smoked hocks, celery, carrots, onion, garlic, a couple of bay leaves, kosher salt, peppercorns, and a can of beer. Simmer for a couple of hours.

Then, I strain the broth, add more chopped onion and cubed ham. Simmer the prepped beans in the broth for about 3 hrs. YUM YUM!

Cornbread on the side of course.
