Ingredients:  
1 lb. dry pinto beans (preferably Casserole brand)

1/4 lb. bacon (or salt pork)

1 TBLS chili powder

1/2 tsp cumin

1 tsp salt

1 tsp pepper

1/2 tsp ground coriander

1/2 tsp garlic powder

Directions:
Directions:
Soak beans overnight. Drain and rinse beans and place in crock-pot. Add all other ingredients and just enough water to cover beans if needed. Cook on low for 4 to 5 hours or until tender.
Garnish with chopped cilantro if desired.

You can double this recipe with 2 lb. package of beans and just double all other ingredients.

NOTE: I like to sauté the bacon with the onions just enough to make them sweat before adding to crock-pot.
