Take the pintos, sift to get the bad ones out, finely chop cilantro, cut off the stems of the serranos, chop up onion, cut bacon into about 1" pieces, quarter tomatoes, beer and add all this along with the garlic and salt to taste to your clay bean pot ( if you do not have a clay bean pot you can use a regular pot but watch the water level as you may have to add more), put the burner on high for 1 1/2 hrs then drop down to medium for another 1 1/2 hrs ( 3 hrs total). Enjoy and you also have left overs for fresh refried beans for breakfast.

Gonna make these this weekend! Is it just one beer for the beans and then the other 11 for the bean cook? Just want to be sure I have the proportions right.

BURTONboy · 02-22-2017, 06:01 PM

Did I read somewhere in this thread to remove the peppers after cooking because it will sour the beans if left in?

Yeah I said take them out prior to storing the beans for leftovers. Beans get a weird taste to me if the serranos are left with them.

Awesome. Placed my order on ebay. Can't wait any longer for a trip down south. Last attempt in the metal pot were burnt.

NBK75 · 03-11-2017, 10:51 AM

Lid and and I like to buy the peeled tomatoes so there's no skin in the beans.

TexasInfidel · 03-29-2017, 10:46 PM

This deserves a bump to the top!
I have cooked these beans many times over the last couple of years and they are ALWAYS great! I have served them at family dinners and at hoytie toytie banquets and they are a hit every time.
I've quadrupled the recipe to serve 60 people (as a side dish) and ran out because folks came back for seconds and thirds of these beans.

The only deviation I've ever made from the original posted recipe is that I'll sometimes buy peeled canned tomatoes instead of using fresh. Otherwise, I make it exactly as written and have never been disappointed.

Thank you PB for this awesome recipe!

Edit - I sometimes cant add beer because of where I'm cooking, scout camps or work.

Thx KFD, you know what? I’m actually 50/50 on using beer. Sometimes I’ll add some but most times I just drink it lol.

...the recipe sounds fantastic!
