Ingredients:
- 3/4-1 lb mixed beans of your choice (white and red kidneys , garbanzos , pintos , limas , whatever you enjoy)
- a ham hock (optional, but adds supadupa flavor)
- several sprigs fresh thyme
- several sprigs fresh sage
- i really love sam adams summer ale in this, and because it's tasty! but it's not summer anymore...
- amounts given are for a 6qt crock pot. adjust accordingly
Directions:
- Sort through beans and discard any rocks. Rinse beans and soak about 8 hours or overnight in cold water. I like to start my beans soaking in the morning so they are reading for cooking by evening and I can let the soup go all night and all day the next day and have it ready for supper that second evening.
- When beans have finished soaking, discard soaking water and rinse in cold water. Dump rinsed beans in slow cooker.
- Add to slow cooker onions, carrots, tomatoes, garlic, and ham hock. Pour in stock and beer. Top off with water, leaving about an inch to the top of the pot.
- Season soup to suit your preference. Bundle several sprigs of fresh thyme and sage with twine and toss in.
- Cover and set slow cooker to high setting. I let mine go for about four hours on high while I was sleeping. At this point, your beans will probably be done (depending on a lot of different stuff) and you could go ahead and eat it. I like to set mine to low at this point however, and let it go another 6-8 hours. I never saw a need to replace the marginal amount of water that was lost.
- Serve warm with buttermilk cornbread, chowchow, and hotsauce.
