Reading it, this explains why The old Cajuns and creoles cooked red beans in this fashion...

AHHH...so THIS is why Grandma told me to never cook red beans in a crock pot!!!

"Insufficient cooking, such as in a slow cooker at 80 °C/ 176 °F, however, can increase this danger and raise the available hau up to fivefold.[6]"
