Instructions
The measurements are 1 part beans to 4 parts water. you can go smaller or larger, whichever you want
place the water, beans, salt pork and whole onions in a large pot
Bring it to a boil and let it simmer all day, stirring every so often so they don't burn to the bottom.
About an hour or two before we're ready to eat I throw in another onion or 2 (peeled and cut in half) so there are some large onion chunks in the end.
Then take out the fatback and serve.
Serve the beans with sliced Jalapenos and shredded cheddar cheese
