Directions:
Put the beans and at least twice much water into a heavy 8-quart pot. Cover the pot and bring it to the boil. Turn off the heat and let it sit for one hour. Drain the beans and return them to the pot. Add all of the other ingredients except the chorizo (or Italian sausage), salt, and pepper. Bring the whole shebang to a boil and simmer for one hour. Add the chorizo (or Italian sausage) and simmer uncovered for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. It’s done when the beans are very tendered and the liquid has thickened.
