Slow Cooker Black Beans

DIRECTIONS

• Rinse beans well in a colander, then spread out on a baking sheet and sort out any rocks or bad looking beans.
• Place the beans in a slow cooker, and the garlic clove, and cover with hot water. Do not salt the beans at this point or the skins will get tough.
• Cook on low heat for 5 to 6 hours. Test for doneness. Turn off the heat and add the salt. Let the beans rest until you’re ready to start the soup.
