Instructions 

  • Clean the beans and soak for 1 hour in cool water. Drain and rinse the beans, discarding the soaking water.
  • Place the beans in a 6 quart crock pot.
  • Slice the sausage into medallions and fry in a large skillet until browned. Remove the sausage from the skillet and drain on a paper towel.
  • In the same skillet melt the stick of butter and saute the onion, pepper, celery and garlic until the onion is translucent.
  • Add the contents of the skillet to the crock pot.
  • Add the water, salt, pepper and Cajun seasoning to crock pot.
  • Cover crock pot and cook on low for 8 to 10 hours until beans are tender. For creamy beans mash some of the beans with the back of a spoon on the wall of the slow cooker.
  • Serve over cooked white rice.
