I been making this baked bean recipe for years.

                  Crock Pot Pinto Beans

For the pinto beans I rinsed and sorted, removing any bad beans. I then added to the crock pot enough water to cover beans by a couple of inches. Put in two beef bouillon cubes and 2 packets of Goya brand ham concentrate. Cooked on high for one hour and then low for four hours. I did check half way through cooking time and added a couple more cups of water. When done I topped them with my homemade relish. They where delicious. I only have a half jar of relish left. Next year I will defiantly be making a larger batch. 

"NOT" going to last through the winter
