Easy and Delicious Borracho Beans image

I wanted Borracho Beans as a side dish but didn't want to make the beans from a dried state. This recipe uses canned beans but it is so good you wouldn't know it! You can't really substitute the beer in this recipe because Borracho Beans means "drunken" and without the beer... well they just wouldn't be Borracho Beans! Also, these beans are intended to be "soupy" so if you like your beans with a thicker sauce (like me!), either use 1/2 the beer or simmer the beans longer (this is what I do).

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 slices bacon, diced
1/4 onion, chopped
2 (16 ounce) cans pinto beans (undrained)
1 (10 ounce) can Ro-Tel tomatoes (undrained)
1 (4 ounce) can diced green chilies (undrained)
1 teaspoon minced fresh garlic (or use garlic powder to taste)

1/4 cup fresh cilantro leaves
lime wedge
shredded cheese

Steps:

  • In a medium sized sauce pan, fry bacon and onion until the bacon is crisp (stirring often to make sure onion doesn't burn).
  • add pinto beans, ro-tel tomatoes, chilies, garlic and beer to the pot.
  • Bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium-low and simmer uncovered for about 20 minutes or until the sauce is to your desired thickness (if you have longer, it's better!).

These beans were a complete disaster! They were mushy and flavorless.

I found this recipe to be a bit bland. I added some extra spices and it was much better.
