I'm a big fan of slow cooker meals that you can walk away from and come back to at the end of the day. This is not one of them. To do this correctly, you have to monitor your progress, but you're going to love the results.

Ingredients

510 mins

10 servings

2 bags (16 oz)each) red beans
1/4 cupWorcestershire sauce
3 tbspgarlic salt
to tasteCajun seasoning
1onion
1 pkgsmoked sausage
16 ozSalt pork (or hamhocks & or pig tails) for seasoning - approx

Cooking Instructions

510 mins

1

You really need to soak your beans overnight. I've always been skeptical of this practice; but my mom says it keeps everyone from getting the farts. If I'm making beans on Sunday, I'll soak them in the crock pot with the Worcestershire sauce on Saturday night. 2 packages of beans usually equals a crock pot half full of water.
2

On the next day, add your garlic and Cajun seasoning before turning on your slow cooker. If I'm making supper for 6:30pm, the beans need to start cooking no later than 10 am. Put your slow cooker on the high setting.
3

3 hours into cooking, add your seasoning meats. If you're using hamhocks and/or pig tails, you can add them directly. If you are using salt pork, slice into strips and cook until brown before adding. If you are using salt pork, be sure to add the grease along with the meat!
4

After an additional 2 hours, finely chop your onion and add to the beans. Be sure to stir gently to mix them in well.
5

Slow cooking your beans will take approximately 8 hours to complete from start to finish once they're cooking. When you have 1.5 hours to go, cut your smoked sausage into medallions and then cut the medallions in half. Fry briefly in an iron skillet until slightly cooked and then add immediately to beans. Stir gently to mix well.
6

During the last hour of cooking, add additional garlic salt &/or Cajun seasoning to taste. The beans should have a creamy consistency at this point.
7

Serve over rice in bowls with bread of choice or cornbread.

Alubias estofadas en olla de cocción lenta (crock pot)

Los que ya me conocéis sabréis que me encanta un plato de cuchara una cosa loca. En mi casa siempre hemos sido muy de guisos y pucheros y no faltan en casa. Si además lo haces en olla de cocción lenta quedan riquísimas ya que se concentra todo el sabor y casi no hace falta añadir sal 🧂.La receta pretendía ser un pote asturiano pero con esta nevada imposible conseguir fabes y grelos. Lo sustituí por alubia blanca normal y repollo. Os lo recomiendo tanto en formato original como en la versión que os traigo hoy. 8 horas de remojo y 8 horas de cocción a baja temperatura.Feliz día 😘😘#weekendtour

Slow Cooker Black Bean Soup

This soup is delicious both on hot summer days or the cold winter days. It goes well with "Cuban Yellow Rice". Reduce the amount of water to 4-4.5 cups to make simmered black beans instead of a soup."Don't open the lid of the slow cooker while it's cooking!" is what I was told... Recipe by Mama Imani

Refried Beans - Slow Cooker

This is, by far, the easiest way to make homemade refried beans. It does take some planning ahead, but for the most part, this recipe is very hands off. These are creamy and nicely seasoned. They're not spicy, so long as you remove the seeds from the jalapeno. Feel free to substitute the pinto beans for black beans to mix things up.

#CA2025 A friend brought this to one of our cookouts. Everyone loved it. You can slow cook in your crockpot or simmer on the stove. I like to use smoked brisket if I have any leftovers. Serve with tortilla chips, sour cream, jalapenos, cheese whatever suits you or eat without extras. This can be a meal by itself or a game day appetizer.

I had a bag of dry beans from the panic buying spree when the pandemic lockdowns began, but I never figured out what to do with them before now. I managed to score some Andouille sausage somewhere and found this recipe that seems like it would work with what I got. 🇺🇲 #cajun

Start a dutch oven of rice and beans around breakfast. Low Simmer all day, ready for evening dinner, only 10 minutes preparation time and 45 minute finish time. Great for busy workdays, delicious smell all day. At medium simmer, small dry red beans are ready as quickly as 3 hours. Leftovers are good for a week in the fridge.

Creamy Cajun Red Beans & Rice

Red Beans and rice is a Cajun dish that used to be cooked on wash day. It's a meal you put on and slow cook for hours that way you can take care of the laundry! These days it is still a major part of Cajun cuisine. When money is tight I cook this using just 2 lbs of Manda sausage instead of using andoullie & Sausage. It's a good bargain but still flavorful sausage. The family can eat this for a few days served differently.You can easily half this recipe to cook only one pound of beans. I have a large family and what's left over I will use to make chilli.

Looking for a simple baked beans recipe using maple syrup for unique flavor profile. If you don't have maple syrup, brown sugar will work with a different flavor result.
