Slow Cooker Old Fashioned Ham and Beans

 

Our Slow Cooker Old Fashioned Ham and Beans bring back so many memories of Grandmothers table. If you stayed long enough with my Grandmother you would find that at least one if not two days a week some kind of beans would be on the menu. This ham and beans recipe is the same that she would serve at her home. The only difference is the Slow Cooker, which she did not have. She simmered her beans on a wood stove that cooked all day, and you could smell them all over the house.

How To Make Slow Cooker 

Old Fashioned Ham and Beans

Chop the onion, carrot, and celery.

Place the chopped vegetables on the bottom of the slow cooker, then generously salt and pepper the vegetables.

Wash the dried navy bean's and pick out the bad ones.

 Layer the washed clean beans on top of 

the chopped and seasoned vegetables. Place a ham hock or 

part of the bone with meat from a left over baked ham.

Place four sprigs of fresh thyme on top of the beans.

Cover the ingredients with water. 

Place the lid on the Slow Cooker.

Cook on high for 5 to 6 hours of on low for 8 to 10 hours.

This cooker of Ham and  Beans will just melt in your mouth!

Recipe

The  Ham and Beans serve up beautifully. 

The longer the beans sit the thicker they will get.

So filling and stick to your ribs. We like to serve our

Old Fashioned Buttermilk Cornbread

as a great paring for the ham and beans.

Thanks so much for spending some time at the cottage with us today. We always have room at our table for friends. You have a great week and come back to see us real soon!

Peace and Joy
