Steps:
- 1. To shorten cooking time, you can soak your beans 6-10 hours ahead. Drain and rinse then proceed.
- 2. Place beans in a soup/stock pot and add water. Place over high heat and begin to prep other ingredients.
- 3. Chop celery, onion, garlic, and peppers, adding to pot. Add all remaining ingredients except smoked sausage.
- 4. During the cooking process, add water as needed to ensure a fairly loose boil. Cook at a low boil for 1 1/2 hours, and check the beans for tenderness. Add smoked sausage and continue cooking till beans are completely tender.
- 5. At this point the pot can be thickened or left more soup like. To thicken, remove some of the beans from the pot, mash them with a potato masher and return to the pot. In addition, you can increase the heat and reduce by boiling rapidly for several minutes. Adjust seasoning if needed and serve over hot white rice.
