Slow Cooker Northern White Bean image

White beans are cooked in a slow cooker with smoked neck bones, aromatic vegetables, seasonings, and chicken broth. This recipe can be used for cooking most any dried bean in the slow cooker. Adjust liquid when cooking tougher skin beans (such as pinto beans). Add garlic and onion powder to taste, if desired.

½ teaspoon soul seasoning
½ onion, finely chopped
½ teaspoon white vinegar, or to taste
