KarlGansen · 05-20-2013, 10:51 PM

**** you, why did I look at this at 11 pm

courtatlawjudge · 05-23-2013, 03:56 PM

Great recipe. I used chicken stock instead of water and then used chicken bullion in place of salt. Great flavor

K5WTC · 05-24-2013, 04:16 PM

Dang TP I want some now lol

Johnny Dangerr · 05-25-2013, 07:26 PM

Ok will run with this Monday. Going to do some research and see what I can find.....

IowaHunter · 05-25-2013, 07:34 PM

I asked my Mom where to get a clay bean pot (like the one she used when I was little) - her response was, "What have you been smoking?" I told her back in the 80's she had one at home. Funny the things we remember from growing up.

I can't wait to make these beans. I added it to my smoker book.

Chew · 05-25-2013, 09:08 PM

Making some tomorrow to go with T-Bones. Looks good.

Making some today. How much of that stinking goat feed do you throw in? I bought a bunch big enough to last
me for a lifetime and it cost twenty three cents!

q-all · 05-26-2013, 04:26 PM

This recipe is awesome.....
Only problem it's one of those enjoy it for 15 minutes then pay dearly for a few days!

Talk more about the clay pot.
There are lots of choices at
lots of prices. My first try on
these was great- your clay pot
will make them better?

My dad gave it to me many years ago. He had gotten it in Laredo. I have no idea on where to get them now. Be careful when getting one because most are just decorative pieces so check on the bottom of the pot to ensure they are not. My pot def adds a lot of flavor IMO.

Johnny Dangerr · 05-27-2013, 12:11 PM

Bubbling now.....

clcraft · 05-27-2013, 12:17 PM

This is the hit of the weekend. I have a crockpot full of this receipt going now. Cant wait. I love pintos and always looking for a new way to cook them. Also have Ribs and sausage on the smoker too. But I am really wanting the beans.

Thanks

billfromtx · 05-27-2013, 12:37 PM

Got mine on...smell awesome! I doubled the recipe. Got a bunch headin over for a bbq

PBFrijoles · 06-06-2013, 07:32 PM

Bump for BBQ season. Comp guys try these and submit in cook offs. Might do good. If so I want royalties lol

Tree Phantom · 06-07-2013, 04:58 AM

Heheh, a yummy bump

JMAG · 06-07-2013, 11:53 AM

Tree Phantom · 06-13-2013, 05:26 PM

Beans will be a cooking Saturday. This will be the 2nd time and the first batch was outrageous.

THETEXAN · 06-15-2013, 06:24 AM

They look Great !

IowaHunter · 06-24-2013, 09:22 AM

Anyone find a source for the clay pot yet?

Tree Phantom · 06-24-2013, 12:45 PM

I'm still looking, there's some out there I've seen on line, kinda expensive. A lady here at the sawmill, says she can get them. Said hers take high heat on a burner and on the oven. We will see.

PBUCKSHOT · 06-28-2013, 02:34 PM

Brought the goodies to work..minus the can of brew

Soaked them in water overnight so they only took 6hrs. It was gone in minutes. I heard "man what smells good" 10000 times before lunch

And they were delicious! Looking forward to more for dinner.

IowaHunter · 07-10-2013, 11:44 AM

Cooking it right now for dinner tonight. Crock pot version is being made. Sure makes the house smell good.

IowaHunter · 07-12-2013, 08:41 AM

Just letting you know guys - if you haven't made this you're missing out.

This recipe is amazing. Had it for breakfast this morning!

Tim did you make the refried version I told you about?

Charlie6Delta · 07-12-2013, 10:53 AM

Benny, I got in trouble last night making you beans!
Put them in the crock pot over night, started them about 6 yesterday evening. After working a double, wife woke up at 2 am stomach growling because she could smell them! She got up and ate a bowl. She told me this morning DON'T EVER DO THAT AGAIN! THEY SMELLED SO GOOD I COULDN'T SLEEP!!!

Good stuff brother! Thanks for sharing!

IowaHunter · 07-12-2013, 10:53 AM

Not yet - that's my breakfast for tomorrow. Those beans are going to be like crack to me.

JCroft11 · 07-12-2013, 11:15 AM

I bought a bean pot from goodwill actually and it works great. www.shopgoodwill.com is their site for online auction type sells. I have used it for everything from crystal decanters ($10) to Lucchese ostrich boots ($47). They currently have 6 or 7 bean pots on there, but they arent really big.

Charlie6Delta · 07-12-2013, 12:54 PM

Man that is cool! Thanks for sharing the link to the bean pots, may have to make a purchase when I get home.
I had these beans for lunch, one of my buddies had a taste. He is sold! He is begging for the recipe! This batch turned out great, absolutely perfect. I am swole up from eating beans and a dozen corn tortillas.

Historical bean recipe

str8shooter · 08-21-2013, 06:40 PM

I'm going for it guys and gals. To be served at office lunch meeting tomorrow. BTW PB, I'm guessing on the amount of garlic and cilantro

str8shooter · 08-21-2013, 06:46 PM

In the pot now. Dang, looks good already!

str8shooter · 08-21-2013, 10:49 PM

I added some peppercorn medley and black pepper to put a little more kick in them. Turned out great!! The wife loved them and she's not a bean peron!

rzrbak · 08-22-2013, 07:32 AM

I love me a good bowl of repeaters......

everything is to taste. I never measure anything for them but then again I've been making these beans for over 20 yrs now.

EZ-10RANCH · 08-22-2013, 09:07 AM

str8shooter · 08-22-2013, 05:42 PM

One more question PBF - My whole house STILL smells like beans! I mean, they smell great, but I'm surprised it's still lingering this long. How long can we expect this to last? It makes me feel hungry constantly!

Darton · 08-22-2013, 06:22 PM

With a name like PBFrijoles these things have to be the bomb!

I have no idea how long the smell will last. I never really paid attention to it amigo.

So what is the advantage of soaking the beans overnight ?
Does it just decrease cooking time?

Brandt S. · 08-25-2013, 02:36 PM

Love me some borracho beans.

If you dont have 3 hours to devote to these, a pressure cooker will get you there in well under an hour. Cook on high pressure for around 22-25 minutes, then cool via quick release. Makes these a viable weeknight option if you dont have much time. If you planned ahead and soaked your beans, you only need 4-6 minutes cooking time at high pressure.

I am always amazed at what pressure cookers can do.

Maui-diver · 08-25-2013, 10:40 PM

Made these tonight exactly as you said but used fire roasted Hatch chilies from HEB. Used about8 of them. Holy smoke, these were da bomb!!! Thanks
