          Water
     1 lb Pickled pork or salt pork
     3 lg Onions; finely chopped
   1/2 c  Chili powder

 Rinse beans, place in pot, cover with cold water, and bring to a
 boil. Boil 2 minutes--then let set for 1 hour. Bring to a boil again,
 reduce heat. Add the pork and remaining ingredients with the

 tender, add the sausage. Cook until beans are soft and the meat is
 well cooked--about 1-1/2 hours. Cut the pork into small pieces and
 slice the sausage. Taste for seasoning and continue cooking 30
 minutes. Serve in bowls. Can be topped with rice and additional
 sausage.
