Buckshot Pinto Beans

2 cups dried pinto beans, washed
1 large onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 bay leaf
2 cups canned chopped tomatoes
1/2 cup chopped bell pepper
2 teaspoons chili powder
2 teaspoons brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon dry mustard
1/4 teaspoon oregano
1/2 cup real or ersatz smoked ham, chopped

Cover beans with water and let soak overnight. Drain
beans, discarding soaking water. In crockpot, cover
beans with fresh water and add remaining ingredients.
Cook on LOW for 6-8 hours, until beans are tender. Taste
beans, add salt if necessary (don't add salt at the
beginning of cooking time - it will make the beans
tough).
