Neck Bones and Lima Beans image

Meaty neck bones and fresh dry beans are best for this one. If done correctly meat should fall off the bones. Great over rice.

Time 2h

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 tablespoons garlic powder
2 tablespoons onion powder
1 tablespoon cayenne pepper
1 tablespoon rubbed sage
1 tablespoon ground nutmeg
1 teaspoon seasoned salt
salt and pepper to taste
3 pounds pork neck bones
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 cup diced onion
1 cup chopped red bell pepper
1 (16 ounce) package dried lima beans
10 cups water, divided

Steps:

  • Combine the garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne pepper, sage, nutmeg, seasoned salt, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. Rub 3/4 of this mixture into the pork neck bones; set the neck bones and remaining seasoning aside.
  • Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Stir in the onion and bell pepper; cook and stir until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the neck bones; reduce heat to low, and cover. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 1 hour, adding water as needed to keep the meat and vegetables from scorching.
  • Meanwhile, place the lima beans into a large pot and pour in 8 cups of water; bring to a boil over high heat. Once boiling, turn off the heat, cover, and let stand 1 hour.
  • After the beans have stood for 1 hour, drain and rinse. Return the beans to the pot, and pour in 2 cups of water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then stir in the pork and vegetables, and the remaining spice mixture. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer until the lima beans are tender, and the pork is falling off the bones, about 30 minutes.

SOUTHERN LIMA BEANS WITH RICE



Southern Lima Beans With Rice image

I was born and raised in the south, and we eat a lot of beans. Here is a easy and basic lima bean recipe. We've been doing it this way for years. You can use ham hocks, hambones, smoked bacon or smoked sausage for the pork flavor in this dish. Also fresh, frozen or even canned beans can be used--they just won't have to cook as long.

Time 3h

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 (1 lb) bag regular lima beans or 1 (1 lb) bag baby lima beans
1 medium onion, chopped
2 ham hocks or 1 leftover ham bone, with some meat still on it
2 garlic cloves
1 teaspoon black pepper
salt
1 tablespoon olive oil or 1 tablespoon vegetable oil

Steps:

  • I know the bag says to soak the beans overnight, but you really don't have to.
  • Wash the beans, and then put them in a large pot. Cover with water and bring to a boil. Boil for 3 to 5 minutes, then turn off the heat, cover and let it sit for 1 hour.
  • After the beans have sat, drain the water and sit the beans to the side.
  • Add the oil to the pot and sauté the ham hocks and onions together, until onion is clear and tender, add garlic and sauté about 2 minutes more. Add the beans and cover with water.
  • Add pepper and salt--only about 1 teaspoon of salt at first.
  • Bring to a boil; stir, reduce heat and cover and simmer for about 2 hours.
  • Keep checking the water level and stirring every once in a while. Add more water if needed, but not too much.
  • Just enough to keep about 1 inch of water above the beans as they cook.
  • Cook until beans are tender, adding more salt if needed. The water will turn into a wonderful gravy. Serve over rice.
