1. Place rinsed and sorted beans in a slow cooker and cover with about 3 inches of water. 2. Add onion, and lard/oil. 3. Cook on medium high until beans are soft and it has thickened somewhat and turned lighter in color. (This can take any where from 1 1/2 to 3 1/2 hours depending on the beans you are using and the altitude.). 4. Add the salt, and remaining ingredients and cook for an additional 30 minutes. 5. Turn down heat and continue cooking for another 30 minutes. Beans should be soft and creamy and broth should be thicker by now. 6. Serve and enjoy! ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
