Easy recipe for a weeknight meal. Throw everything in crock pot in the morning and your meal's ready when you arrive home from work or school. Serve with hot cooked rice; tossed salad on the side. Source unknown. Vegetarian friendly! Update February 2009: I used this recipe: Turkey Breakfast Sausage Patties to replace the ham.

This is a Caribbean baked bean recipe, basically. I loved it. Easy and delicious. I added 1 Tb. of golden rum to the mixture at the beginning. My mixture came out a little soupy, more than I would get from 1 Tb. of rum. I guess I was supposed to drain the pineapple? Anyway, I just slightly thickened with a little cornstarch slurry. I added several shakes of cayenne pepper to my serving. I'm sure I'll be making this again.

    I went home at lunch, threw this in the crockpot and when I got home, the whole house smelled wonderful! Super easy and good too! I think next time I'll leave out the ham and use 2 cans of pineapple (I really love pineapple), but this was just great! I love the barbeque sauce with the black beans. I didn't need to add any water at the end.

    Pretty darn good, Cookgirl! I love black beans, and this was a different and tasty way to eat them. I didn't use reduced-sodium beans and didn't have a can of crushed pineapple on hand, but I did have pineapple so I just crushed it a bit myself. I used regular ham and added a little extra, since I am trying to use up the last of the Easter ham. Simple and satisfying--thanks for posting!
