- ½ lb smoked ham, chopped into ½-inch dice (a generous cup)
- 1 medium onion, diced
- 1 tomato, diced
- 2 jalapenos, stemmed, seeded, and finely chopped
- 6 garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tablespoons whole grain mustard

- 1 tablespoon Kosher salt
- 2 teaspoons dried thyme seeds
- ½ tablespoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- Steamed white rice, for serving
- Scallions, thinly sliced, for garnish
- Hot sauce
Instructions
- Put the dried beans in a large pot of water (the beans should be covered by at least 2 inches of water).
- Soak the beans overnight and then drain.
- Combine the beans, 1 gallon plus 2 cups water, the ham bone, and bay leaves in a large stockpot and bring to a simmer over medium heat.
- Meanwhile, in a large skillet, cook the sausage and ham over medium-high heat until crispy and brown, about 8 minutes.
- Add the onion and cook until softened, 5 minutes more.
- Add the tomato, jalapenos, garlic, mustard, vinegar, salt, thyme, black pepper, and cayenne and continue to cook until the mixture is hot and the ingredients have softened, an additional 5 to 8 minutes.
- Scrape the sausage mixture into the pot of beans.
- Simmer slowly, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until creamy and tender, about 3 hours.
- Approximately 10 minutes before the beans are done, use a wooden spoon to smash some of the beans against the inside of the pot.
- Remove the bones and bay leaves.
- Serve over hot steamed white rice with sliced scallions and hot sauce.
- Enjoy!
