Chalmar Farm Kitchen advice:

Prepare samp and beans without meat and serve as a side dish.

If you don’t have a slow cooker: Separately soak your samp and beans in cold water overnight. Follow the recipe as above, but simmer over low heat for 2 – 2½ hours or until samp, beans and meat are tender in a pot.
