Crock Pot Smokey Black Beans Recipes

Steps:

• ** Soak beans over night
• Drain the black beans from their soaking water and place in a slow cooker. Fill with enough fresh water to cover them. Cover and set to High.
• Cook bacon in a skillet over medium heat until fat is rendered. Add onions; cook and stir until onions are tender.
• Stir this into the beans along with the brown sugar, liquid smoke, molasses and jalapeno. Stir to blend, then cover and cook on low for 8 to 10 hours, or until beans are tender.

Steps:

• 1. The day before you want to make your beans, soak them in water overnight. In a large bowl, remove beans from bag and cover with water.
• 2. In a crock pot, add soaked beans and cover with chicken stock. I used almost a full carton of chicken stock (32 ounces). Add in all your ingredients.
• 3. Stir spices into the broth.
• 4. Set crock pot for desired cook time and let it work its magic. I set my crock pot for 8 hours because I made them early in the day. Garnish with cheese and cilantro.
