Pinto Beans in a Crock Pot

 Cookie (Texas) says:
I made this for dinner and loved the ease of preparations. The changes I would make is to add the seasonings during the last hour or longer, or add extra seasoning at the end. The flavor cooks away if added early.
I had time so, I just set the cooker on low for 8 hours.
A really good recipe. Thanks for sharing.

Cookie, when you made this did the liquid stay watery or did it thicken up some. I'm looking for a good recipe for pintos with the soup a little thick can you help. Thanks
