Directions:
Soak beans in water over night.
Drain water and cover again with water and 2 tbsp baking soda.
Bring this just to a boil and drain the water off.
Two more times cover with water and 2 tbsp baking soda and bring to a boil.
After you repeat this process three times you will drain the water and rinse completely with cold water.
Cover the beans with water and put ham hocks in. Heat and simmer for about an hour. Add your ham cubes, salt and pepper to taste and cook them until they are the consistency you want. You may want to add onion, but we don't care for that. You can also add ham bullion for stronger flavor.

This was the way Mom Grise fixed them. Every New Years day she had the family in for ham and beans which was supposed to bring everyone a good and prosperous new year!
