Our made from scratch 15 Bean Soup recipe features a different cut of meat. We use country style ribs on the bone for added flavor and goodness. The bone creates that bone broth rich flavor.

How to soak peas or beans. Anytime you are cooking dried peas or beans in a recipe, you will want to soak them overnight in water before using them the next day.

Quick Soak method: rinse peas or beans under cold water in a colander. Place in a pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil and turn off the heat. Let sit for one hour then drain and use the peas or beans in your recipe.

How To Make Country Style 15 Bean Soup

Begin by soaking your beans overnight to prepare for the next day or use the quick soak method above.

Into a large Dutch oven, like this one, add olive oil and turn onto a medium heat. Season your country style ribs with salt and pepper, to taste and add to the oil in the Dutch oven. Sear on both sides turning with tongs for about 6 or 7 minutes per side. Remove the ribs to a plate and set aside.

Now add, into your Dutch oven, the rest of the olive oil, prepared celery, carrot, onion and garlic. Season with salt and pepper to taste and stir to combine. Cook, stirring occasionally until the vegetables soften. This should take about 4 or 5 minutes.

Now add the ribs back on top of the cooked vegetables.

Drain the beans and add those on top of the meat and veggies. Then pour in the chicken broth or water if using that. Add in the bay leaves and dried herbs. Stir to combine.

Turn the heat up to medium-high and allow the mixture to come to a full roiling boil. Then immediately reduce the heat to just under medium so the soup simmers for about an hour and a half or until the country style ribs fall off the bone and the beans are tender but not mushy.

Remove the Dutch oven from the heat. Using a large slotted spoon or tongs, remove the bones from the soup. Pull any meat off the bones which may not have fallen off and shred using two forks. Return the meat to the pot.

Finally stir in the chopped fresh Basil just before serving.
