Instructions 

  • Using a 7-quart crockpot or larger, add all the ingredients listed, except the parsley, into the slow cooker. Stir to combine.
  • Cover and cook on low for 6 to 8 hours, or high for 4 to 6 hours, until beans are tender. I find the beans get much more flavorful and tender with the longer and slower cook time!
  • When ready to serve, add the fresh parsley and stir. Serve warm with cornbread, crusty bread, or your favorite crackers on the side.

Notes

How To Soak Beans: Rinse and sort beans to remove debris. For best results, soak overnight in cold water in the fridge. For a quick soak, boil beans in 10 cups of water for 2 minutes, cover, and let sit 1 hour. Drain and rinse soaked beans before cooking.
Store: Store leftovers in an airtight storage container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
Reheat: For larger portions, reheat on the stovetop or in the crockpot. For individual portions, reheat in the microwave.
Freeze: Transfer cooled soup to an airtight freezer-safe storage container. Freeze for up to 3 months. For best results, thaw overnight in the fridge before reheating.
