Time 3h45m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 pound dry pinto beans
1 pound bulk pork sausage
1 pound ground beef
1 onion, chopped
1 green bell pepper, chopped
1 (10 ounce) can diced tomatoes and green chiles, undrained

I would never make this recipe again. It's the worst bean recipe I've ever tried.

This recipe is just plain bad. The beans were tasteless and the sauce was gross.

I've tried this recipe twice now and both times the beans have been undercooked. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong.
