Pinto Beans With Bacon Recipes

Steps:

• In 4-quart saucepan or Dutch oven, cook bacon over medium-high heat until crisp. Drain on paper towels. Reserve 2 tablespoons drippings in saucepan.
• Stir in onions and garlic; cook over medium-high heat 5 to 8 minutes or until onion is softened.
• Add remaining ingredients except bacon; mix well. Reduce heat to medium; cook 18 to 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened. Stir in all but 1/4 cup bacon. Crumble remaining bacon and sprinkle on top of beans. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Rinse the beans under cold water, sorting out any rocks/particles. Set aside.
• In a heavy pot (cast iron), saute the bacon pieces until halfway cooked and the fat is rendered. Add the green peppers and onions to the pot and cook until starting to get brown, about 3 minutes. Add the beans and cover with water by 1 inch. Bring to a boil, and then add the brown sugar, ketchup, mustard, chili powder, salt, pepper and garlic. Reduce the heat to a simmer, place on the lid and cook until the beans are tender and the liquid is thick 3 to 4 hours.

Steps:

• Put the beans in a large bowl, cover with cold water and let soak overnight.
• Drain and rinse the beans, then put them in a large pot. Cover the beans with water and add the chili powder, cumin, paprika, cayenne, bacon, garlic, bay leaves, onion, bell pepper and some salt and pepper. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and cook until the beans are tender, 2 to 3 1/2 hours.

Steps:

• Pick over the beans for small rocks or debris. Rinse well, then cover with cold water and soak for 6 hours or overnight.
• Transfer beans to a soup pot and add water to cover by 1 inch. Add onion, bay leaf and bacon and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to a bare simmer, partly cover pot with lid, and cook for 1 hour, stirring occasionally.
• Stir in salt, paprika and cayenne, then continue simmering until beans are soft and creamy and the broth is well seasoned and lightly thickened, about 1 hour more. Remove bacon and chop roughly, then return to pot. (Dish may be prepared up to 2 days ahead.)

Steps:

• In the bottom of a large pot over medium-high heat, brown bacon until golden, about 5 minutes. Stir in onion, celery, carrots, garlic and rosemary. Cook, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are tender, 5 to 7 minutes.
• Drain beans and add to pot along with 1 tablespoon salt. Pour in enough water to just cover the beans (about 7 to 8 cups). Bring liquid to a boil; reduce heat and simmer gently until beans are just tender, 45 minutes to 1 hour.
• Meanwhile, in a small pot over medium heat, simmer wine until it is reduced to 2/3 cup, 20 to 30 minutes.
• Remove rosemary branches from bean pot and discard them. Pour wine into beans and bring to a simmer. Cook for 10 to 20 minutes longer to meld flavors and thicken broth to taste. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with Parmesan, if desired; add more salt and black or red pepper to taste.

Steps:

• Soak the pinto beans in water overnight in a large mixing bowl.
• Drain the beans and set aside.
• In a dutch oven or other large vessel put the oil, onions, bacon, garlic and green chilies and cook over medium or medium-high heat until the onions are transparent and the edges of the onion have very lightly browned. Stir in the cumin powder.
• Add the beans and 6 cups water. Increase heat to high, bring liquid to a boil, decrease heat to medium or medium-low and cook until the beans are very tender, adding more water as needed. Add salt and black pepper to taste.
• I like to serve these beans in ramekins. They make a nice side dish to any Mexican meal.

Steps:

• Cover the beans with water in a heavy saucepan and bring to a boil, drain.
• Cover with water again, about 2" above the beans.
• Add all the remaining ingredients, except salt.
• Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low and simmer uncovered until the beans are very soft.
• add more water if necessary.
• Keep the beans submerged, takes approximately 3 1/2 hours.
• Season with salt to taste.
• If the beans are too liquid cool and sit overnight.
• Reheat to serve, stir frequently so the beans do not stick.

Steps:

• Place pinto beans into a large container and cover with several inches of cool water; let soak, 8 hours to overnight.
• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir ground beef with vegetable blend and onion until beef is browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain and discard grease.
• Combine the beef mixture and pinto beans in a large pot. Stir in chicken broth, tomatoes, bacon bits, Creole seasoning, garlic, salt, black pepper, cumin, mustard, and red pepper flakes. Add enough water to cover. Simmer until beans are tender, adding more water as needed, 3 to 4 hours.

Steps:

• Add the soaked beans with at least 1-inch of water to a large saucepan or stock pot. Bring to a boil.
• Stir in the tomato sauce, BBQ sauce, crumbled bacon, diced peaches plus 1 cup of the peach juice. Stir in the brown sugar and pepper. Return to a boil, then reduce heat to medium, cover tightly with lid and cook for about 1 1/2 hours, or until beans are tender. Add salt to taste.

• In a medium skillet, fry the bacon until crisp. Remove the bacon but leave behind the drippings.
• Pour off all the drippings except 2 Tablespoons.
• Return pan to medium heat.
• Add the onions and chiles and fry until deep golden brown, about 10 minutes.
• Scrape the onion mixture into the beans; taste and season with salt.
• Continue simmering, stirring occasionally, for 20 minutes to blend the flavors.
• If the beans seem soupy, boil over medium heat until they are the consistency of a nice brothy bean soup.
• You can also take 1/4 of the beans and run them through the blender with a bit of broth, then return to pan.
• Just before serving, stir in the tequila and cilantro.
• Serve in warm bowls topped with the crumbled bacon.
