1 cup chopped carrots
1 cup chopped onion
1 (28 oz.) can chopped or crushed tomatoes
1 tsp. each: salt, pepper, rosemary, thyme,and dry mustard to taste
1 1/2 to 2 quarts water
Cover the ham hock or ham pieces with water, cook 1/2 hour. Add the 2 cups of soaked and drained beans, the tomatoes, carrots, celery and onions and seasonings; cook for 2 1/2 hours.
Crockpot-Rinse beans and put all ingredients in pot for 8 hours. Use a little less water if you do.
