| 1. Fry bacon in frying pan. | 2. I cut into bite sized pieces with scissors before frying. | 3. As bacon fries, chop onions. | 4. When bacon is finished, remove from pan,drain and wrap in paper towels to absorb grease. | 5. Saute onions in bacon fat til translucent. | 6. Pour into strainer, but not necessary to rinse or pat with paper towel. | 7. For me, straining is enough. | 8. Pour canned beans into 6 Qt Crockpot. | 9. Stir in bacon, onions, ketchup, Salsa, Brown Sugar and cumin, mixing very well. | 10. Stir often. | 11. Cook on high for 3 hours, then switch to low for another two hours, well ahead of serving as it tastes even better the longer you allow the flavors to blend together. | 12. If I'm making them for a party, I make them early morning for that night or even the night before, cooking overnight in the crockpot. | 13. They will stay hot for a long time and you can just turn the crockpot back on a couple hours before serving. | 14. I taste them often as they're cooking and add more salsa and/or cumin to taste. | 15. We like to taste the cumin, but if you don't that's ok. | 16. Recipe is easily halved or doubled. | 17. I never measure anything- I add all ingredients for our taste preferences. | 18. Freezes VERY well and you can reheat in microwave or in crockpot once thawed. | 19. Leftovers are great the next day! | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
