Kiki's Borracho (Drunken) Beans image

Growing up, my Mexican grandmother always had a pot of beans cooking on the stove. I often cook these beans (a 'drunken' version) for my family, and the aroma keeps her close to my soul, even years after she has past. I hope your family enjoys them as much as mine.

Time 3h30m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 pound dried pinto beans, washed
2 quarts chicken stock
1 tablespoon salt
½ tablespoon ground black pepper
1 (12 fluid ounce) can or bottle dark beer
2 (14.5 ounce) cans chopped stewed tomatoes
1 white onion, diced
¼ cup pickled jalapeno peppers
6 cloves garlic, chopped
3 bay leaves
1 ½ tablespoons dried oregano
1 ½ cups chopped fresh cilantro

Steps:

  • Soak beans in a large pot of water overnight.
  • Drain beans, and refill the pot with chicken stock and enough water to cover the beans with 2 inches of liquid. Season with salt and pepper. Cover, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and cook for 1 1/2 hours. Stir the beans occasionally through out the entire cooking process to make sure they do not burn or stick to the bottom of the pot.
  • Stir beer, tomatoes, onion, jalapeno peppers, garlic, bay leaves, oregano, and cilantro into the beans. Continue to cook uncovered for 1 hour, or until beans are tender.
  • With a potato masher, crush the beans slightly to thicken the bean liquid. Adjust the seasonings with salt and pepper to taste.

These beans are a great way to use up leftover ham. I always have some ham leftover from the holidays and this is a great way to use it up.
