Beans (Crock Pot) (Most Random Thread) - Earth - 07-07-2015
This is probably the most random thread ever on sinister.li but oh well.
I am originally from New York but moved to Kentucky around 5 years or so ago, but when I lived in New York the country was always where I felt I was meant to be. There is a part of New York called the Southern Tier and its nothing but country, hills, farms, etc there. I stayed there with my uncle for months at a time. I don't think I am country because of the fact that I was not born in the country but they say who you are comes from the heart so idk.
Anyways over the years I started picking up on country cooking and one of the most common food here is crock pot pinto beans. Which is a healthy dish with an unhealthy touch the way I do it. Anyways I though I would share the recipe below and if anybody wants to try it go for it.
Ingredients: Dried pinto beans, Diced potatoes, Large Diced Onion, Bacon, Ham Hawk, Crushed red peppers, BBQ sauce, and Garlic.
Step 1. Throw the beans into the crock pot, fill with water about 2 or 3" above the beans.
Step 2. Throw the diced potatoes and onion in along with the Ham Hawk.
Step 3. Cut up the bacon and fry it until almost cooked then throw it in the crock pot.
Step 4. Add a good dash of crushed red peppers in and a dash of garlic powder or a table spoon of fresh garlic.
Put it on high and cook until it becomes dark brown in color and creamy. Add a few squirts of BBQ sauce, stir it up and grab bowl.
It goes great with corn bread.
Don't have a crock pot? do it on the stove top with a medium to low heat and avoid scorching it.
Adjust water level as needed.
Most random thread END.
