Jasmine rice is our everyday rice and that's what we eat with these beans. I hope you enjoy the beans and rice as much as we do. Hi T.

I used a variety of tomatoes from our garden for the diced portion, and substituted the bell peppers with a combination of homegrown red cowhorn peppers and a smaller amount of Jalepeno's to make up the difference for the bells and green peppers ... should have a nice kick! it's great to have many recipes and mostly used my tomatoes so far this harvest to make spaghetti sauce ... thanks to this recipe, I can now use the harvest to make some great beans... we'll scoop it onto a bed of rice, what is the best rice for cuban style in your opinion? We'll be putting this on top of high-grade Jasmine rice... thanks again, the last time I had this, I was with a family that absolutely made the best black beans, they were from Cuba, and I remember the whoever was in charge of the beans had already learned to cook the beans in the slow cooker ... I think you're on to something! I will report the taste in the morning, the kitchen is nicely aromatic right about now! Thanks, T I’m happy, I’m making this for the first time… all went into the crock about 40 minutes ago and we’ll have it for breakfast in about 8 hours from now…

I love cooking with the slow cooker, and have lost count of the number of times I have made these. YUM YUM YUM. I sometimes also add some smoked sausage since my husband thinks he needs meat at every meal. This one is definitely in the winter rotation. Thank you so much for this recipe.

I'm sorry to hear your beans didn't turn out. I'm not sure what happened with your batch. I've never had a problem with the beans not cooking up in the allotted time. Hi Lori.

I put them on at 11 pm last night (Monday) and they're still cooking (it's 4:50 pm) and the beans are still firm. I would recommend soaking the beans ahead of time for anyone who is going to try this recipe. I was so excited to make this for my son.

We're going to a friend's house for a lunch pot-luck today, and I'm making a double batch of these awesome black beans. My kids still are a bit wary of it, but the rest of us love it.

My mother's Cuban black bean recipe adds some cinnamon, more vinegar, and lots of lime juice. I tend to add the vinegar and lime at the end so it wont cook out/ Some people have different tolerances of the sour so I might leave the cut limes for the diners to squeeze on their meal. Tonight I am making my first slow cooker version.... Hi,
