Instant Pot® Charro (Refried Beans) image

This recipe is written to be prepared in an Instant Pot® pressure cooker. With some small alterations, I am sure you can cook it on the stovetop as well. These beans are great served as is or blended to be the texture of refried beans.

This recipe is a waste of time. The beans were mushy and gross.

These beans were a little too spicy for my taste, but my husband loved them. I would make them again, but I would use less chili powder.

I've tried many refried bean recipes, but this one is by far the best. The beans were creamy and flavorful, and the addition of the chorizo and spices gave them a nice kick. I'll be using this recipe from now on!
