How can I use up some good bacon ? I have 3 types I need to get ta using up.
Soup sounds good, and soup can cook while I'm at work.
Navy bean it is!
Used the slow cooker to saute the bacon up.. Buckboard and belly bacon I had just done. I chunked all the meat up and reserved the Canadian Bacon for later when I get home, I will add it then.

Drained some fat out and did celery,Onion and carrots a few minutes in a bit of olive oil as the meat , now browned, sat in paper towel lined strainer I will use for draining the bean liquids. I cooked beans 15 minutes then they sat covered an hour.
Added a couple bay leaves and some pepper flakes. Last I added a can of regular diced tomatoes and chicken stock I just made. Water I added also to equal about 10 cups of liquids total for a small bag of beans.
Set at high 7 hours then for 3 hours it will be on warm until I get home.
Will adjust seasonings and add the Canadian Bacon then.
Update in 6 hours. :cool:

OH MAN, that looks Great Johnny!

I tried to dip some out, but my display got in the way.

My wife always gathers up the Ham Bone from Christmas Family get together.
Then uses it in a big batch of Navy Bean Soup.

My Dad always added a chunk of 'Sow Belly' to his pots of NBS.

Oh man! Good recipe for cornbread. Just Betty Crocker with a jalapeno pepper and a bit of topside butter after it's out of oven.
The 3 bacon all worked.. heavier on CB than other 2.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5 out of 5.. heat from pepper flakes is great.. the chicken stock did give extra richness. Good stuff..
