Notes
For a smokier flavor, add a few slices of cooked bacon to the beans.
Swap out navy beans for pinto beans for a different taste and texture.
If the beans are too runny, remove the lid and cook on high for the last hour to thicken the sauce.
To make the beans vegetarian, omit the bacon and use vegetable broth instead of water.
