3 slices bacon chopped

fry bacon till just below crispy-perfect. heat broth. add bacon, onion, beans, ok add everything. Bring to boil. Cook boiling but not super-hot until beans are tender.
Do stir occasionally. You may have to add water if they get too dry.

Tastes good over rice, or blackeyed peas.
