Beans and Meat - Cold Weather Tradition

[JES]

My mom grew up on a small dairy farm and her dad had an old black man that worked for him. She said almost everyday his lunch was beans and meat, which turned into a cold weather tradition for us. Pretty simple.

Ingredients:
1 large yellow onion, diced.
4-6 cloves garlic, diced.
1 tbl spn Fiesta Pinto Bean Seasoning
1-1.5 tea spn chili powder
2 beef bullion cubes
1 lb dry pinto beans
1 lb hamburger meat(I’m using ground moose currently)

Brown onion in 2 tbl spn vegetable oil
Add garlic, don’t overcook.
Add beans, cover with 1” of water.
Add dry ingredients and bullion.

Boil 30 minutes and then simmer until almost done.

Brown hamburger and add to beans, low boil for 30 minutes or until beans are done.

Serve with rice/cornbread

Growing up, we always had hamburger in our beans. Depending on the price of burger, sometimes it was a little more, sometimes a little less, but there was always some in every pot of beans. A pan of cornbread and it was a meal fit for a king!

Glad you did not call it chili

Almost exactly how I do it. I’ve had to explain this meal to my family each time “it’s just dang meat and beans!!!” Not chilli. Just meat and beans! Ha…. Fantastic for this weather

I also add finely chopped tomatoes or tomato sauce

Hobo beans, hard to beat them with some cornbread.
