Crock Pot Roast with Pinto Beans

by
Hello! This Slow Cooker Pinto Beans and Beef recipe will not disappoint. I did not go the chili route when seasoning this, I did a mild seasoning just to bring out the flavor of the beans and beef. I love homemade pinto beans, especially if they are creamy. When cooking pinto beans on the stove-top they end up being creamy, because of the stirring that the stove-top beans require. To get this creamy effect in the slow cooker I take out a cup or more of beans after they are done cooking and put them in a bowl, I mash them up, them stir them back into the rest of the beans, problem solved!
If you plan on making these beans be sure to read that the pinto beans need to be soaked overnight, doing this will help the beans get nice and tender during the cooking the next day. If you forget to soak, it would be best to do a quick soak method before adding the beans to the slow cooker, you can see how to do that.

  • 1 can of rotel or diced tomatoes
