Sauté onion, pepper and garlic with drizzle of oil or broth until softened.
Add the rest of the ingredients and bring to a rapid boil. About 10 minutes.
Cover, reduce to a simmer and cook for about an hour. Check for desired done texture preference along the way.
Serve however you want! These thicken as they sit, and get thicker in the fridge. They are even more flavorful the next day!
To cook in the Instant Pot:
Use the sauté setting to sauté the onions, peppers and garlic, or sauté on the stove.
Add the rest of the ingredients and cook on manual with the valve on the seal setting for 30 minutes.
Allow pressure to naturally release for 15-20 minutes.
Turn the valve to vent to finish releasing pressure.
To cook in the crock pot:
Sauté the onions, peppers and garlic on the stove.
Add them to the crock pot along with the rest of the ingredients.
Cook on high for 3-4 hours or on low for 6-8. Check at 3 or 6 hours for doneness and add more broth if needed. You want the liquid to cover the beans so they don’t burn.
