since its raining, I'll start
southern great northern beans
what you need:
1/2 lb salt pork( the good kind, where its 90% fat)
1 onion choped fine
3 cloves of garlic ( or more if your like me)
pepper
1 lb great northern beans soaked over night, or boil them hell out of them for 2 mins and let them soak for a hour
cut the salt pork in 1/2" cubes
cook them over med low heat until they render down and are nice and crispy, remove then from the pan. Use the rendered fat to sweat the onions and the garlic. add the beans, salt pork, pepper and enough water to cover by about a inch. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer. Simmer the beans stiring every once in awhile for 90-120 mins or until the beans are tender and the onions have fallen apart.
will server 4, unless your like me and can't get enough, then it might server 2
