Slow Cooker Black Beans

Entirely fair....I had high hopes for these and made them as recommended. I’ve doe. Better with canned black beans, pepper and Goya sauce....I really like doing them from scratch but it wasn’t worth the effort

My whole family loved these! The only changes I made was using a smoked ham hock instead of a ham bone, and I used homemade jarred jalapeños. I slow cooked them for 8 hours and those are the best black beans I’ve ever eaten! The kicked of spice of the jalapeños and the smokiness from the ham hock added a nice touch to this easy recipe.

I love black beans, but not from a can, all you have to do after washing the beans : cook the beans in a pot with enough water with salt, fry a white or yellow onion in olive oil until onion is golden brown then add to the beans , when water with the beans start boiling lower the heat and simmer for a good two hours, don’t throw the water away, that’s were the vitamins are, eating them with some rice on the side when freshly done , after you can grind them or smash them and use them for tostadas or nachos or a side dish.they are very nutritious.
