Ham Hocks And Beans Recipe

Ham Hocks And Beans

From minkey 16 years ago

This wonderful soup is great served with FRIED egg noodles. Try it! this has become a family tradition on Christmas Eve!

Cook ham hocks with enough water to cover. I use a pressure cooker for about 1 hour. If you cook on the stovetop, cook for about 1 1/2 hours, or until the meat falls off the bone.
Cool ham hocks and liquid to remove fat and separate meat from fat and bones.
Put boneless meat back into the liquid and start to simmer.
Add all ingredients to pot and simmer for at least an hour. It is better to simmer as long as you would any good soup.
Boil noodles according to package instructions, al dente is best.
Heat vegetable oil in large fry pan and drop in drained noodles about 1" deep.
After noodles get golden, but not too brown, put in individual soup bowls and spoon in soup over them.
Add some nice black pepper and hot sauce if you like!

This is different than how I make mine...I like the tomato addition. And fried egg noodles? I'm all over that!

Oh-my-gosh. I cannot tell you how many times over the twenty-five years I've been married I made Ham hocks and Beans. It's so funny because, my husband taught me. He is originally from Missouri and I was a California girl who had never heard of Ham Hocks and Beans! I love it and cannot eat it without crumbling corn bread right in the bowl with it! Thanks for taking me down memory lane. Great post!
