The best ever. Can't go wrong with only 7 ingredients. Don't bother wasting good garlic in this. It has all the flavor it needs. I didn't even have to add salt. I used lard to sear the hocks instead of veggie oil, and made some lard cornbread. Ended up cookin the whole thing for approx 8 hours. Too awesome!

Make sure all the marrow from the hocks gets in your soup or spread on some bread. That stuff is some of the best stuff on earth! I just ***** it out of the bone like the bone is a straw...haha. I'm sure that sounds gross, but that good marrow would never have been wasted when our grandmothers were in charge. Get to know the animals y'all are cookin with yalls!

This is my staple beans and ham hocks recipe, except that I sear some salt pork in the oil before adding the onions.

Wonderful recipe, although I added 6 minced garlic cloves, just because I like garlic.

This recipe of Emeril's has been in the network since 2000, the "copy" as you put it Jeff was posted on Saturday, October 17, 2009, so ya it is easy to do a copy and call it your own. THANK YOU EMERIL FOR THIS GREAT RECIPE.

I soaked he beans overnight in chicken broth. I threw everything in the crockpot early in the morning and let it simmer on low all day. I did us creole seasoning and added celery & bell pepper. I added some green onion (tops chopped up about an hour before I served it. Oh, and also added some andouille sausage because my husband loves it, but it would have been awesome without. I've had alot of awesome white beans in my lifetime (staple in Louisiana, and this recipe is authentic for South Louisiana folks. Thanks!

This is a wonderfull cold winter day meal. I like to add a little bacon for flavor and at the end toss in some fried potatoes for more flavor and filling.

The hardest part about this recipe is chopping the onion. If you can manage that, and have mastered turning on your stove, you are good to go with this gem.

I had some left over ham from the holidays and decided I had better use it up (leftover whole ham, no ham hock required, so I browned as directed and 2 hours later my wife and I were simply amazed with the flavor this dish produces.

I can see where going half and half with chicken stock & water would "kick it up a notch".

I won't even bother looking for another ham & beans recipe. This is easily the best I've had, and is sure to become a winter staple at our house.

I used a whole leftover ham hock and found I needed more beans b/c there was so much ham. Wonderful and even better the next day!
