Purely comforting and one of the best slow cooker recipes I’ve made!

Scale

1–½ lbs ham hock

2 lbs great northern beans, dry

6 c. water

1 large celery stalk sliced or chopped

1 large carrot sliced or chopped

½ tsp cayenne pepper

salt to taste

½ tsp black pepper

In a large slow cooker, add all the ingredients.

Set to cook the beans on high for 4 – 5 hours. You can also cook on high for 7 – 8 hours.

Take the ham hock from the slow cooker and allow it to cool a little. Take the ham bits off and return them to the slow cooker.

Stir everything and season with salt if needed.

Serve the beans immediately with biscuits or cornbread. Enjoy!
