Tom says the cheaper the better, because it’s not as filtered!In a large pot, cover beans with water, or alternatively use the sauce you soaked them in overnight as part of the liquid. Add chopped onions, bell pepper, ham hock and garlic. Cook on low for 5 hours. Stir about once per hour, adding hot sauce to taste as you go. Prep and serve over rice. Any kind of rice will do!Tom’s Tips:•Invite guests to arrive about an hour before the dish is done. •The cheaper the wine, the better. Can use cheap beer as a sub.•Don’t invite your girlfriend over to watch an episode of a freaky food show you produced if you want a girlfriend after she has watched the show!Marti’s Next Video, “Washing Dirty Dishes,” is set to film on September 29th.
