Instructions For Making Your Pinto Beans In The Crock Pot Or Slow Cooker

1. Wash the beans and soak overnight in cold water. Be sure to look them for very small rocks. Drain the beans and dump into slow cooker. Stir in chili powder and oregano.

2. Pre-soak ham in a separate pot, for at least 2 hours, or refrigerated up to 24 hours, depending on how salty you want your stock to be. Add ham hock to slow cooker with beans and pour in ham soaking liquid. Add more water until ham hock is completely covered.

Mix ingredients together and store in an airtight container for up to 6 months. House seasoning is excellent in beans, greens, fried chicken, fried fish and etc.

And if your going to make crock pot pintos then you just have to cook Mexican Corn Bread to serve with them. I usually make Mexican Corn Bread and I put a square of the corn bread in the bottom of a large soup bowl and put a large ladle of pinto beans and juice over the corn bread. You can offer shredded cheddar cheese, sour cream, guacamole, sliced or diced fresh jalapenos, diced sweet onion, and etc. on the side so people can add what they want to in their bowl of pintos.
