Rinse and sort beans. Cover with water and soak overnight. Cover soaked beans with 2 inches water. Add onions, garlic powder, bell pepper. Bring to a slow boil and cook slowly for 1 hour, stirring occasionally. Add diced ham, pork tasso and sausage. Cook until beans are tender, 30-45 minutes. Add water sparingly during cooking as needed to keep beans from sticking.
