For the tart apples, you can use whatever kind you have on hand but when making this recipe I prefer to use Granny Smith Apples. You can always find them at your local grocery store. Pink Lady apples are also a good alternative.
Baked Beans is one of my favorite side dishes to make during the summer when I am grilling. I find that baked bean dishes go especially well with chicken or any type of red meat cooked on the grill.
This Baked Bean recipe is not your typical baked bean dish. The ham, apples and raisins add a bunch of flavor to an otherwise plain pot of baked beans. Cooking time can vary by a couple of hours but you will know when the beans are ready when the apples are tender.
Try to resist as much as possible the temptation to open the lid while it's cooking as the slow cooker loses heat. By just opening the lid to stir the contents can make the internal temperature drop by 10°F to 15°F.
