For a spicier kick, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or a diced jalapeño to the slow cooker. If you prefer a smokier flavor, use smoked bacon instead of regular bacon. To thicken the beans further, mix a tablespoon of cornstarch with two tablespoons of cold water to form a slurry. Stir the slurry into the slow cooker during the last 30 minutes of cooking. These cowboy beans are delicious served with cornbread, coleslaw, or a simple green salad.
