I made these beans and ham in my instant pot tonight, and boy was I surprised at how FLAVORFUL they were within such a short amount of time. Normally to make this, I would soak the beans overnight, then simmer them all day long. With this method, it took 90 minutes from start to finish (from dry beans!!). Used a whole lot less electricity too.

Having used the beans and ham stovetop method, the beans and ham crockpot method, and the beans and ham instant pot method . . . . for me, the instant pot method takes 1st place for being most time-saving, most flavorful, and easiest.

    This looks delicious. Have you ever tried making it saucier? I am wondering about mixing up some molasses, brown sugar, maple syrup, etc., and then adding it at the end and letting it sauté a bit?
