JOHN'S SUCCULENT SUCCOTASH
This dish is best served with sweet cornbread. The leftovers are very good and I suggest that you warm in a cast iron pot on low for about two hours stirring only once to avoid breaking up the beans for best results. Sallye's Lima Beans & Hog Jowl recipe from this site was the basis from which I started with and began adding...

Steps:
- 1. Wash lima beans thoroughly, picking through to remove any stones or other foreign objects (such as dirt clods) Put beans in crockpot with 1 gallon water (or more if needed to cover to about 2" above level of dried beans. I prefer to add more water near the end to fill as desired. Turn crockpot on to low (about 140 degrees)
- 2. Sear hog jowls in heavy skillet, then transfer to crockpot with beans Add stick of butter. Grind or crush three large dried shitake mushroom to a dust or powder. I dislike the texture of mushrooms so I hide them this way.
- 3. Turn crockpot to low. Check to make sure beans are covered by water Dried beans will absorb a lot of water while cooking At this time, add salt and pepper and stir well to blend
- 4. Cook for 8 hours.
- 5. Add frozen butter beans, liquid smoke, peeled tomatoes, and corn to the pot. If you prefer it as a soup then add water until your about a half inch from the top of the crockpot.Continue to cook for about two more hours until it becomes a creamy soup and the lima beans are tender. Salt to taste.
