Couple of tips:
5qt Crock pot required
Always cook in the crock pot on LOW
Assemble the ingredients the night before and place in a crock pot. Cover with plastic wrap and store in fridge. It allows the flavors to soften and develop.
With the exception of the Chili beans and Baked beans, drain and wash all other beans.
IMHO Bush’s beans are best.
