Soak beans overnight in 6 cups of water. Drain, rinse, and sort.
Put the bacon into a large heavy pot and place it over medium heat. Cook until it starts to give up its fat, about 4 minutes. Stir in the onions and cook, stirring, until they start to turn translucent, about 4 minutes. Stir in the garlic and cook until you can smell it, about 1 minute.
Place beans in pot and add 6 cups of water, ham, and seasoning mix; cover and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 2 hours, stirring occasionally, until beans are tender. Add additional water, if desired. Garnish each serving with cheese.
