Barbecue Beans from the Crock Pot

Great, hearty tasting dish. Everyone enjoys this recipe. It states to cook for 4-6 hours, but I find that 4 hours is adequate and it may overcook at 6 hours, so be sure and check it at the 4 hour mark. The last hour of cooking you may want to take cover off and turn to high to thicken up a bit if it seems a little thin.
