Step 1

Add the beans, onion, garlic, oregano, cumin, dried chile and stock/water to your slow cooker. Give it a stir.

Step 2

Cook on high heat for 4-5 hours, or low heat for 8-10.

Step 3

When the beans are tender and most of the liquid has evaporated, remove the dried chile if you aren't a fan of spicy food, or keep it and mix the softened chile into the beans for additional flavor and heat.

Step 4

Add the lime juice and salt. Mix well.

Step 5

Optionally garnish with fresh chopped cilantro before serving. Enjoy!
