Directions

1. Place dry pinto beans in slow cooker pot and rinse with water.
2. After rinsing cover beans with water and allow to soak overnight.
3. In the morning rinse beans and cover with fresh water.
4. Add bullion cube, soy sauce, onion powder and garlic powder.
5. Cook on low for 6-8 hours or high for 3-4 hours.
6. Salt and pepper to taste,
7. If desired. I like keeping some of the juice with the beans, you can either keep it or strain it out.
8. Freeze any leftovers for future meals.
9. You can also cook beans in a large stockpot on the stove top. Cook for about 1 hour on medium, covered. At this time check for doneness. If they are not done keep cooking until they are.
