ingredients

1 pound dried pinto beans
6 cups water
3 pounds beef brisket or round roast
1 large onion, chopped
1/2 cup dark molasses
2 teaspoons salt
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/2 teaspoon dry mustard
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 bay leaf

directions

Rinse beans under running water, place in a large kettle with water; bring to boiling; cover kettle; lower heat; cook 15 minutes; let stand 1 hour.

Trim all excess fat from beef; brown meat on all sides in remaining fat in a large skillet. Place meat in the bottom of the slow cooker; add beans and liquid, onion, molasses, salt, ginger, mustard, pepper and bay leaf.

Add more water, if needed to cover meat and beans; cover. Cook on high for 2 hours, stir beans, adding more liquid if needed to keep beans and meat covered. Turn heat control to low and cook for 8 hours, or until beans are very tender and liquid is absorbed. Taste and season with a spoonful of hot prepared mustard, if you wish. Remove meat to a carving board and cut into slices; spoon beans around beef on platter.

  1. mima11 REVIEW:

    I made your Pinto Bean and Brisket Supper. It was very easy to make. The brisket was very mellow and had the aroma of the beans. This recipe is good to fix for persons who love Pinto Beans - Just asks my Husband. Jan

    This is a wonderful, down home dish with a mild sweet flavor. I used leftover roast with mine that I cubed and added 2 hours before I wanted to serve. At the same time I spooned on Bisquick dumplings, they gave it a special touch, tasting like bisquits. If the family was not allergic to cornbread I think cornbread dumplings would be delightful!
