Slow Cooker Smoky Beans with Cherry Tomatoes and Bacon Recipe


Ingredients


1/2 lb. thick-cut bacon, finely diced

1/2 lb. dried white beans, rinsed and soaked in water overnight

1/2 lb. thick-cut bacon, finely diced

1 onion, finely diced

1 c. cherry tomatoes, halved

2 c. water

3 T. tomato paste

1/4 c. BBQ sauce

3 T. molasses

1 T. brown sugar

1 t. apple cider vinegar

2 t. Dijon mustard

Sea salt and black pepper to taste


Directions


1.    Sort and wash the dried beans picking out small stones or other debris.


2.    Discard any beans that are shriveled. Rinse in a colander with cool water.


3.    Place beans in a large bowl and cover with water to a height double that of the beans as they will double in size as they soak.  Let soak overnight in the refrigerator.


4.    In the morning drain the beans.


5.    Spread the bacon on the bottom of a slow cooker. Add the beans on top of the bacon. Add the onions and cherry tomatoes on top of the beans. Do not stir.


6.    In a medium bowl, whisk the water, tomato paste, BBQ sauce, molasses, brown sugar, apple cider vinegar, and Dijon mustard until smooth. Pour over the beans but do not stir.


7.    Cover the slow cooker and cook on low for 8-10 hours or until the beans are tender and creamy. Once finished, give everything a good stir. Taste and season the beans with salt and pepper to taste.


Recipe Note


Do not salt the beans until they have finished cooking. Salting prevents the beans from becoming tender.
