Ingredients | Soul Food Turkey Neck Bones

2 tablespoons garlic powder

2 tablespoons onion powder

1 tablespoon cayenne pepper

1 tablespoon rubbed sage

1 tablespoon ground nutmeg

1 teaspoon seasoned salt

salt and pepper to taste

3 pounds pork neck bones

3 tablespoons olive oil

1 cup diced onion

1 cup chopped red bell pepper

1 (16 ounce) package dried lima beans

10 cups water, divided

Directions

Combine the garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne pepper, sage, nutmeg, seasoned salt, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. Rub 3/4 of this mixture into the pork neck bones; set the neck bones and remaining seasoning aside.

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Stir in the onion and bell pepper; cook and stir until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the neck bones; reduce heat to low, and cover. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 1 hour, adding water as needed to keep the meat and vegetables from scorching.

Meanwhile, place the lima beans into a large pot and pour in 8 cups of water; bring to a boil over high heat. Once boiling, turn off the heat, cover, and let stand 1 hour.

After the beans have stood for 1 hour, drain and rinse. Return the beans to the pot, and pour in 2 cups of water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then stir in the pork and vegetables, and the remaining spice mixture. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer until the lima beans are tender, and the pork is falling off the bones, about 30 minutes.
