EASY SLOW COOKER PINTO BEANS

Steps:

• 1. Place all ingredients In a crock pot. Do not soak your beans, there is no need.
• 2. Place cooker on high for 6 hours, stirring at the three hour mark.
• 3. Enjoy over rice or in tortillas. It makes a soupy broth that when cooled becomes nice and thick. If you don't have a ham bone don't worry you can substitute ham hock, sausage or bacon. They are all delicious.
• 4. One more quick note, if your dried beans are very old, like food storage beans that are over four years old, you may need to soak them a few hours and add a little more water and a dash of meat tenderizer to help them absorb better. But I have cooked ten year old beans like this and they were delicious.
