Crock-Pot Baked Beans in Tomato Sauce

"Very easy, I think it tastes best when cooked slow and I found with my slow cooker I had to cook for an hour or two longer than the recipe says. My hubby loves this recipe! If you have used up all the reserved fluid and need extra fluid while cooking, in particular when on high, use up to 1/2 cup of tomato juice. Prep time does not include the bean soak."

  1. A delicious pot of beans emerged today. so tasty I began sampling early. I did add a little more chopped onion with celery, a hair of rosemary and a touch of ground clove. Whoever devised this recipe deserves a round of applause.
     
  2. We had the family over to try this one and everyone loved it. I cooked them in the oven instead of a crockpot. 250 - 300 degrees for 7 - 9 hours. Careful about the sauce getting burned on the sides as it cooks down. However, this does give them a smokey flavor...
