• Remove meat from oven, and sprinkle with pepper. Add beans to pot, along with soy sauce and 1 cup water. Cover, and return to burner, adjusting heat so mixture simmers. Cook slowly, turning about every half-hour, until meat is very tender, at least 2 hours (and not unlikely 4). If heat is low enough -- just a few bubbles should appear at a time -- you will not need to add more liquid, but do so if the mixture threatens to dry out.
