WHERE DO I FIND INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW TO MAKE IT?
These Great Northern Slow Cooker Beans are made with dry beans and a variety of vegetables and are excellent. This is a versatile dish where the flavoring veggies may be swapped out fast. You can also use ham or bacon in the beans.
The beans in the photo were baked in the slow cooker without being pre-soaked or boiled and turned out perfectly. If you’re having trouble getting the beans tender, soak them overnight. Alternatively, soak them quickly (as instructed on the bean package) and then boil them briefly before adding them to the slow cooker. While many people assume that salt has little influence on bean tenderness, use it at the conclusion of the cooking process, once the beans are tender.

INGREDIENTS NEEDED TO MAKE THIS EASY CROCKPOT:
A medium package. Of dried Northern beans, I used the 16-ounces sizes.
3 to 4 Meaty-ham hock shank, sometimes, I used also meaty ham bone about.
1 small diced white Onion.
Enough water to cover the beans.
Salt & pepper, to taste
1/3 Cup.Of Light brown sugar.
DIRECTIONS:
1st step:
The first thing I did was sort the beans for stones, and then I washed them in cold water.
Step two:
I put the rinsed beans with the onion, sea salt, and pepper, as well as the ham shanks hocks or ham that I’d previously sliced into large bits, in the crockpot.
3rd step:
Then I poured in enough water to cover the beans by about 2 inches. This recipe should give 6 to 8 cups.
4th Step:
After that, I covered and simmered for about 120 minutes over low high heat, then decreased to low and cooked for another 4 to 5 hours, or until the beans were soft.
5th Step:
After that, I took out the ham shanks or hocks, as well as all of the meat.
6th step:
After that, I put the beef back in the crockpot and added the brown sugar at this point.
7th step:
Depending on the thickness or thinness of the beans, I found it really advantageous to drain roughly 1 cup of the fluid before applying the brown sugar, and I gently blended everything together.
Step No. 8:
Finally, for serving, I prefer to spoon some into individual bowls!
