COLA BEANS



Cola Beans image

This is a favorite at potlucks and barbeques! I've often wondered if I get invited for my company or my Cola Beans! I've tried several different brands of colas, but have found that Coke® works best. I like to pre-cook the bacon about half-way so it doesn't make the beans too greasy, but it's not necessary. This recipe can also be baked in a conventional oven at 350 degrees F for about 1 hour.

COWPOKE PINTOS



Cowpoke Pintos image

These are some of the best baked beans (pintos) you will ever taste. The Coca Cola in this recipe helps with the "side effects" of eating too many beans, but also blends nicely with the spices. Try these at your next barbeque...great with ribs, bbq'd chicken, pretty much any kind of meat you can cook on a grill. From "Smoke and Spice" by Cheryl Alters Jamison and Bill Jamison, a James Beard award winning book.

Time 3h50m

Yield 6-8 , 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 lb dried pinto bean, soaked overnight
8 cups water (plus more as needed)
12 ounces Coca-Cola
14 1/2 ounces whole tomatoes, canned, undrained
2 onions, chopped (medium sized)
3 slices bacon, preferably a smoky slab variety, chopped
3 tablespoons chili powder
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon ground cumin
3 -4 serranos (fresh) or 3 -4 jalapenos, chopped
1 teaspoon salt (or more to taste)
1 cup sausage, grilled and sliced (optional)

Steps:

  • Soak the beans overnight in water to cover. Drain.
  • In a Dutch oven or stockpot, combine all the ingredients except the salt and sausage. Bring the beans to a boil over high heat and then reduce to a simmer. Cook slowly, stirring up from the bottom occasionally, for at least 2 to 3 hours, depending on your batch of beans. Add more water if the beans begin to seem dry. Stir in the salt and meat, if desired, in the last 30 minutes of cooking. The beans should still hold their shape but be soft and just a little soupy.
  • Serve the beans in bowls with a bit of the cooking liquid. The beans reheat especially well.
