Growing up in the south, with a hillbilly for a mother, I've never had soup beans.

So, I gotta ask:

What in the ever lovin fuck are "soup beans"?

I've had pinto beans, black beans, kidney beans, pole beans, 13 bean soup, beans in my soup, beans in my stew, beans with ham hocks, refried beans, garbanzo beans, beans in my chili (yes, they belong there), and a host of other types.
I still have never heard of "soup beans".

Help a brother out.

I have had three-bean salad. Next day, co-workers had a tough time.

That's what you get for having co-workers.
Or, is it that's what they get for having you as a co-worker?

I love cornbread. It's even better with cheese and jalapeños.
A little bacon ain't gonna hurt it none either.
Yes, it still gets slathered with real butter, not that yellow vinyl shit.

Soup beans are a thick, stew-like Appalachian dish of tender, smoky beans traditionally made with pintos but can be made with any dried bean. A main course in the Southern US, it's often served with cornbread, greens, and pickled relish. For extra flavor, it can include cured pork like bacon, side meat, or bacon grease. Some add hot sauce, peanut butter, or yellow mustard

Pinto beans?
If so, we just called it beans and cornbread.
Smoked ham hocks were the normal addition, but if that wasn't available, Mom used leftover ham and ham bone and maybe supplemented it with a bit of bacon while they cooked.
I always hated greens, unless it was spinach.

Hot sauce wasn't on Mom's table, but it's a staple in my house.

Some of y'all have never had pig knuckle or pigs feet in your beans and it shows, probably never had poke salad either, savages
Poke salad stinks to high heaven

Spent many days picking it with grandma on the side of some barely there national forest access road in Arkansas. Still refuse to eat it to this day
 
You haven’t lived until you add some maple syrup to cornbread….

Then again, I’m a Yankee (and not the New York kind)

A long time ago, on a shift job where "lunch" happened around 3-4 AM and lunch was often breakfast in the company cafeteria ...

My fork paused mid-air dripping over easy with a bite of sausage as I watched in stunned silence while the FNG started pOUrIng sugar into his grits. He said that's the way everybody eats grits where he's from ... some god forsaken place north of the Mason Dixon line.

To @kalashnikev 's point you do find the sweet stuff down south but where I'm from we differentiate corn "muffins" from cornbread and we like our cornbread unsweetened with bits of corn and jalapenos, the bits of corn add just a touch of sweetness.

Exactly how my mom made them. As a kid I remember sitting around the table sorting dried pinto beans and pulling out the bad ones. That description I sent was copied and pasted off of google. We just called them beans my whole life.
 
Leave my mother out of this, she stopped whoring 6 years ago. If so I’ll leave “this” out of your mother.
Thats what my dad said to my mother aand a tea cup went flying across the room missed him about 4”. They got divorced right agter that but i was already heading to useless college at the time. That oh shit moment. Mom gone now but im still bitter at her tho.
