Crockpot Pinto Beans Recipe
Make these in the slow cooker, or stovetop, and bake some cornbread. Yum!
Usually, I make pintos with tomato sauce, but chile sauce adds a nice zip.
Ingredients
- 1 lb. dry pintos, soaked overnight in water.
- 1 1/2 qts. chicken broth (I use Orrington Farms Chicken Base Broth added to water, which is cheap.)
- 3 slices meaty bacon, cooked, chopped
- 1 small onion sautéed in bacon grease
- 1/2 tsp. garlic powder
- 1/4 cup Heinz Chili Sauce or homemade
- 1 tsp. chile powder
- 1 tsp. pepper
- 1 tsp. salt
- 1 tsp. cumin
- Tabasco to taste
Directions
- Place pre-soaked beans in a crockpot with the other ingredients. Cook on high for 1 hour, turn to low and cook another 6-8 hours.
- Pre-soaked beans cook in about an hour on the stove-top.
