Smoky Black Beans image

My daughter and I love the black beans found at a popular fast food chicken restaurant, but I could not find a recipe for that particular taste. I think I came pretty close with this one. A little spicy, a little sweet but oh, so good!!! These beans go great with almost any meat but are especially good with grilled chicken.

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 pound dry black beans, soaked overnight

These beans were a little too spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed them.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my beans didn't turn out as smoky as I expected. I'm not sure what I did wrong.
