The beans in the photo were baked in the slow cooker without being pre-soaked or cooked, and they turned out fine. Soak the beans overnight if you have difficulty making them soft. Alternatively, soak them rapidly (as directed on the bean package) and then boil them for a few minutes before applying them to the slow cooker. While many people believe that salt has little effect on bean tenderness, apply it at the end of the cooking process, after the beans have become tender.

INGREDIENTS NEEDED TO MAKE THIS EASY CROCKPOT:

A medium package. Of dried Northern beans, I used the 16-ounces sizes.

3 to 4 Meaty-ham hock shank, sometimes, I used also meaty ham bone about.

1 small diced white Onion.

Enough water to cover the beans.

Salt & pepper, to taste

1/3 Cup.Of Light brown sugar.

DIRECTIONS:

Step 1:

The first step I started with, was to sort the beans for pebbles, and then I cleaned them under cold water.

Step 2:

In the crockpot, I combined the rinsed beans, with the onion, sea salt, and pepper, as well as the ham shanks hocks or ham, that I’ve chopped into large chunks before.

Step 3:

After that, I added enough water to cover the beans by around 2 inches. This could yield approximately 6 to 8 cups.

Step 4:

Once completed, I covered and cooked over low high heat for approximately 120 minutes, then I reduced to low and continue cooking for an additional 4 to 5 hours, or until beans were tender.

Step 5:

Following that, I removed the ham shanks or hocks, taking out all of the beef.

Step 6:

Following that, I returned the meat to the crockpot and added the brown sugar at this stage.

Step 7:

I found it extremely beneficial to drain around 1 cup of the juice before applying the brown sugar, depending on the thickness or thinness of the beans, and I mixed everything gently to combine.

Step 8:

And to conclude, I preferred to pour some into individual bowls for serving!
