I had the pleasure of assisting a chef who taught a great steak cooking class. This steak sauce is one of the recipes he shared with the class and he kindly gave me permission to share it with all of you. Note: this sauce can also be used as a 10-minute marinade.

This sounds wonderful. I bet it’d be even easier if you throw everything in the crock pot after rinsing the beans and set it on low and let it go all day. I’m going to try that soon. I’ll let you know how it works out!

Yes! I have thought of doing it in the crock pot also!

Your navy bean soup looks great. Reminds me of childhood memories. Will make it soon. Thanks for sharing. I’ll report back after I make it.

Christine thanks for the recipe.
Here is an interesting tid-bit on Navy Bean Soup:
Whatever uncertainties may exist in the Senate of the United States, one thing is sure: Bean Soup is on the menu of the Senate Restaurant every day.
One story has it that Senator Fred Thomas Dubois of Idaho, who served in the Senate from 1901 to 1907 and sat as chairman of the committee that supervised the Senate Restaurant, gaveled through a resolution requiring that the bean soup be on the menu every day.
Another account attributes the bean soup mandate to Senator Knute Nelson of Minnesota, who expressed his fondness for it in 1903.
As served in all eleven dining rooms of the United States Capital, Washington, D.C.

Christine, your soup is great. Navy bean is my dad’s favorite and he’s been sick so I wanted to make him some and deliver it. I replaced about 1/3 of the water with low sodium chicken stock, added a bay leaf and a sprig of thyme with the ham hock. I let that go for about 90 min then removed the bone and removed the bay leaf and the thyme sprig. Added all the veggies and just a bit of ham from the hock (too fatty for my taste) and added some leaner ham I had bought. I let this go for another 60 min. I loved the use of the tobasco and I added lots of fresh cracked black pepper. The flavor was incredible – thanks for sharing your recipe.

I tried this soup and it tastes great, was super easy to make and has been wonderful to have during our cold weather spell!

This soup is amazing! I added a can of stewed tomatoes though, and it was fantastic!

Very good. I have never put so many veggies in my navy bean soup but I really liked it and made it a well rounded meal. I also tried it with jalapeno cheedar beer bread (from off this site) and they paired very well together.
