Though we don't have an actual slow cooker. We normally use our cast iron dutch oven for anything that requires slow cooking like that. Or sometimes our porcelain covered cast-iron from Le Creuset.

We do more with the flavouring when we're trying to make the beans more the centre of attention, for sure. Pork, garlic, maybe even some chopped-up dried chiles.
