there are some pretty good recipes here. Ive posted one a few posts down (charro beans) they are my favorite my fiance is hispanic and she is the one who taught me this recipe. she can make a killer pot of beans. the pics i posted were some i did over a camp fire in a dutch oven and stuck em the smoker to hold and pick up some smoke flavor.
Note to self: Send Kevin some Beano.:shock: :razz: :lol:Kevin said:I make a big ole pot of beans almost every weekend. Dried beans, great northern, pinto, navy, red, black or whatever else I can get. Soak overnight friday, rinse and put in crockpot saturday morning with some chopped onion, bay leaf, and garlic. Cover everything, plus an inch or so over the top, with water (I use chicken stock, probably use water if you're monitoring sodium).That's always my base to start with. The kitchen smells great on saturday. From there I get creative. Some of the additives could be diced japs, ham hocks, ham bone, leftover brisket or pulled pork, oregano, cumin, whatever suits my fancy for the day. Beans will take on most any flavor profile you choose to throw at them. Fun to experiment with.

Great Northerns boiled with some dehydrated onion and chopped brisket.
Salt to taste, served with a small pat of butter.
Some folks try to flavor the bean. I prefer the flavor of the bean.
