PORK MIXED BEAN CHILI



Pork Mixed Bean Chili image

I am posting this because I don't want to forget this!!! It used up the leftover pork roast and everyone liked it even better than the original meal...go figure. :) I made it again later with leftover pork tenderloin, too. It's great with corn tortillas or cornbread. Best of all it was quick and easy and my four year old spice-o-phobic liked it. The can sizes I guessed; they're just the standard size. This froze beautifully, too. And it is six GENEROUS servings.

Tips:

  • Soak the Beans: Soaking the pinto beans overnight helps reduce cooking time and makes them more digestible. You can also use canned pinto beans if you're short on time.
  • Use Good Quality Ingredients: Using fresh, flavorful ingredients will make a big difference in the taste of your chili. Choose high-quality pork, vegetables, and spices.
  • Brown the Meat and Vegetables: Browning the meat and vegetables before adding them to the chili helps develop flavor and create a rich, savory base.
  • Use a Variety of Spices: Chili is a great dish to experiment with different spices. Try adding cumin, chili powder, smoked paprika, or cayenne pepper to taste.
  • Simmer for a While: The longer you simmer the chili, the more flavorful it will become. Aim for at least 30 minutes, but you can simmer it for up to 2 hours.
  • Garnish with Fresh Herbs: Before serving, garnish the chili with fresh cilantro, parsley, or scallions for a pop of color and flavor.

Conclusion:

Pork and pinto bean chili is a hearty, flavorful dish that's perfect for a cold day. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With a few simple tips, you can make a delicious chili that your family and friends will love.
