Old Fashioned Navy Bean and Ham Bone Soup

This Old Fashioned Navy Bean and Ham Bone Soup has been around our family for several generations. I grew up having this soup at my parents and both grandparents tables. It was usually made and served shortly after the big baked ham had been served. We have a special spice mix that goes in the stew pot and that has never changed. It was always served with Old Fashioned Buttermilk Cornbread.

How To Make

Old Fashioned Navy Bean and Ham Bone Soup

The night before, pick out the bad beans and then wash and drain them. Place the clean beans in a large bowl

 and cover with water, then cover the bowl. The next morning drain the soaking water, then pour the soaked bean into a large stew pot. Then place your ham bone on top of the beans.

Cover the beans and bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and cook on low until tender.

When the beans are tender, add the spices and stir well.

Place the lid back on the beans and simmer for 30 minutes. Keep on simmer until served.

These Navy Beans are ready to serve.
