White Navy Beans with Dill and Chorizo Sausage

Hey folks here is something different. I love beans. The best way cook beans is let them soak overnight which translates anywhere from 10 to 12 hours. Be sure to rinse them good as well. When cooking beans i always put enough water just to cover the beans. Take your time cooking them. This batch i started cooking at8:30am and by 1:00 pm they were cooked, very tender but not falling apart. Here is what you need to get started:

1 lb bag of white navy beans
1 small onion, sliced
1 tsp of salt
1/4 cup of molasses
3-4 dill pickles, fine chop or minced
1 chorizo sausage
1-spring of dill
1/2 slice of dill pickle
1/2 slice of chorizo

Set the beans in the crockpot. Add salt and onion. Cook for 4 -5 hours. In the last 2 hours add the chorizo sausage. In the last 1/2 hour add the minced or chopped pickle and the molasses. Garnish with a sprig of dill, slice of pickle and a slice of chorizo.
Chorizo sausage originally was a spanish sausage. It is also popular in Mexico. It now has found its way to the north country and is readily available in grocery stores. It has a great smoked flavor and goes well combined with certain other foods such as beans.
