Directions:
Rinse beans and check for "foreign objects". Cover beans with water and bring to a rapid boil. Drain this water and add fresh water to the beans in the pot. Prepare all other ingredients (except ketchup) and put into pot with the beans. Cook on a slow simmer until beans are tender to the point of being creamy. Continue to add water as needed. Remove a portion of beans from the pot and mash with a spoon and return back to pot. Add the ketchup. Eat immediately or continue to simmer until you are ready to serve.

Personal Notes:
Personal Notes:
This recipe is a great one for using the last of a baked ham, for cooking with a ham bone, for using up any kind of leftover ham. If you do not have ham of this sort on hand, most grocery stores offer packages of chunk ham.
