reviews & comments
15 pounds of beans? Are you serious? OF that 15 pound mixture, how much is actually used to make soup in this recipe?
If you read the directions you'll see that 2 cups of the bean mixture goes into each jar. And the directions to make the soup use 2 cups (one jar) of the bean mix. This is a recipe for making a large quantity of the MIX (for gift giving or other uses).

Try using Polish Sausage or Smoked Sausage instead of ham. For a spicier version, use 1 can of stewed tomatoes and 1 can of Rotel, and garlic pepper.

I definitely think the 2T salt was a misprint, I got plenty of salt with the ham hock and just needed to add a couple of pinches to make it just right.
