Another interesting sounding bean recipe that would be just as easily cooked in the slow cooker. Since I do like to make beans to serve with grilled meats, this side dish would be very simple to put together sometime during the day to get it ready for dinner. Then, all you would need to do is grill the main meat dish and add a salad, and the food would be ready in no time. Also a good thing to bring to a summer pot luck. I am curious to see if you can actually taste the Dr. Pepper, or if it blends in and just adds some sweetness. Has anyone made this? If so, could you taste the Dr. Pepper?
