Makes 8-10 servings

Soak beans for an hour or more in water to cover and a little baking soda
(takes the gas out of the beans). Rinse barley in salted water to clean.
Spray crockpot with non-stick spray (makes for easy cleanup). Rinse beans
and layer ingredients in crockpot in order given. Add water until 2" above
ingredients. Cook for 1-2 hours on high setting, then lower to low setting
and cook 8 hours or overnight. May also be made in an oven. Bake at 200-250
degrees for 8 hours or overnight. Posted to Bakery-Shoppe Digest V1 #211 by
