Easy peasy pinto beans


I love to make beans, soups, stews etc when its cold out. These beans are THE easiest meal I make and they last for a long time.

1lb Pinto beans soaked overnight with an acid (lemon juice, whey, apple cider vinegar) if you would like to get lots of gas and bloating from your beans then by all means skip this step. If you would like to eat your beans with NO gas and bloating then DO IT!!

Rinse beans and add them to crock pot

Add 2 medium onions diced and some diced garlic

Throw in some pork or as we say at our house "park" (I use pork sausage from my farmer, its a bit too porky to eat plain but works perfectly in this recipe. You could also use bacon)

Add enough water to cover, about an inch above the beans

Turn on your crock pot and bam you're done! (and when I say bam I'm not copying Emeril, even though he does live across the street from me and we are like BFF's, but its because its just something I say)
