Ingredients:

Serving

1 lb dried beans , i recommend a 12 bean mix
3 tbsp blackening seasoning
water, enough to cover beans
2 stalks celery, chopped
1 medium onion, chopped
3 garlic cloves, sliced thin
2 small green bell peppers
1 hot red pepper , about 4-inch long
2 slices bacon, uncooked
3 slices cooked bacon, crumbled
1 tbsp fresh thyme
1 tbsp fresh parsley

Directions:

Rinse beans and place in a large pot. Cover with water and add 3 tablespoons of cajun spice or blackened seasoning. Place over medium heat and bring to boil. Remove from heat and let stand until cool. Place in refrigerator over night.
Remove beans from the refrigerator. Drain and rinse beans. Place beans back into the pot and generously cover with water. Add thyme, garlic, hot pepper and the 3 slices of uncooked bacon to the beans. Bring to a boil on medium heat and cook (covered) for 1 1/2 hour.
While beans are cooking, fry bacon, saving the drippings for later.
Add the celery, onions, green bell peppers, bacon drippings and crumbled bacon to the pot. Cook for 30 minutes if you like your vegetables on the crunchy side or longer for softer vegetables. Add parsley.
Serve up in your favorite bowls with your favorite corn bread recipe.
