Spicy Slow Cooker Pinto Beans Food

SPICY SLOW COOKER PINTO BEANS

Steps:

• Place pinto beans in a 7-quart slow cooker and add enough water to cover. Allow to soak for 3 to 4 hours.
• Combine jalapeno peppers and garlic in a food processor; puree into a paste.
• Drain beans and return to the slow cooker. Stir in jalapeno-garlic paste. Nestle ham hocks among the beans. Sprinkle onion chunks, salt, cayenne, pepper, and paprika over the beans. Place bacon and green chiles on top.
• Cover and cook on Low for 10 hours. Remove ham hocks. Cool slightly; shred the meat.
• Return meat and fat to the slow cooker. Stir for a few minutes to incorporate fat into the beans and give liquid a creamy consistency. Turn off or keep warm until ready to serve.

PINTO BEAN RECIPE

Steps:

• Rinse and drain the beans, discard any dirt clumps or rocks. Add to the slow cooker.
• Add the onion, jalapenos, chili powder, onion powder, garlic powder, pepper, chicken broth and water to the slow cooker with the beans. Wait to add the salt.
• Cover and cook on HIGH 6-7 hours. Do not open the lid while they cook, or they will not get tender.
• When the cooking time is done mash about 1/4 of the beans with a potato masher right in the slow cooker. Or you can put a scoop in a bowl and mash with a fork and add back to the slow cooker. This will make the beans creamy, which the slow cooker can't do since the simmer is so low. Add salt to taste, I usually use 1/4 tsp.
• Serve as a side dish or as a main with tortillas or cornbread. Enjoy!
