Time P1DT4h10m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 pound dried pinto beans
½ teaspoon salt
8 cups reduced-salt chicken broth
1 ¾ pounds ham hock
½ teaspoon black pepper
salt to taste

Steps:

  • Pick over the beans, rinse them, and place them in a large bowl with 1/2 teaspoon of salt and enough water to cover by 3 or 4 inches. Allow the beans to soak overnight.
  • The next day, drain and rinse the beans, and place them in a large pot. Stir in the chicken broth, ham hock, black pepper, and salt. Bring to a boil over medium heat, and reduce the heat to a simmer.
  • Simmer the beans over low heat for 4 hours, adding water occasionally if needed to keep the soupy consistency. Remove the ham hock before serving.

These beans were a bit too sweet for my taste. I'll try reducing the amount of brown sugar next time.

These beans were a bit bland for my taste. I added some extra spices and they were much better.

I made these beans in my slow cooker and they turned out perfectly. They were so tender and flavorful. I served them with cornbread and they were a perfect meal.

These beans were a bit too spicy for me, but my husband loved them. I'll definitely be making them again, but I'll use less chili powder next time.
