Sort and wash beans. Cover with water and soak overnight. Drain. Add 6 cups water. Combine bacon, sausage, onion, green pepper and garlic.
Cook over medium heat until bacon is done and vegetables are tender. Add Worcestershire sauce, sugar, cumin, pepper, celery seeds, hot pepper sauce, salt, and bay leaf. You want to bring mixture to a boil.
Cover, reduce heat and simmer for 2 hours, or until beans are tender, stirring occasionally. Add tomatoes and cook 30 minutes longer. Remove bay leaf before serving.
