Texas Homestyle Pinto Beans Recipe Tutorial S5 Ep 506

The rocks turn to dirt when you wash them

I keep all the jalepeno seeds but that's just me.

Just avoid the stone or grit in beans by first spreading the beans (dry beans in a bag) on a flat surface and pick through them for any trash or rotten beans.Once that is done wash the beans thoroughly in cold water.WHEN ,these steps are completed they are ready to be cooked and you as the the cook can feel confident in eating a grit or stone free meal.

I use Rancho Gordo beans. You get what you pay for. They are many varied and exceptional. No rocks or dirt clods.

Smells good I do know

Ah the last time I took seeds out of a chili I was keeping to seed the next year from a cheap bag that cost 1 dollar (nearing their end of shelf life) I forgot, a few mins later went out side and started rubbing one of my eyes, yeah that sting didn't go away for ages, in the tear duct, not on the eye. =)

Thank you for the recipe

You need cornbread and all beans partner in crime......rice.

Try new mexico pinto beans with red chile and a large flower tortilla. Now your living

What was in the second jar? Cumin maybe.

I'm not sure about the salt affecting tenderazation. If that were true the bacon, salt pork or ham hocks would mess up the beans to begin with.

All of your vegetable prep tricks were super helpful, thanks for sharing. About how large is that pot you used?

Looks delicious! Nice voice to listen to. My husband asked if I was watching the Bob Ross of cooking. I'm sure you know Bob Ross the painter who paints little trees!

The capsaisin layer of a chili exists in the interior layer of the chili and sometimes migrates into the seeds. If one wishes to eliminate the 'heat' in a jalapeno, one has only to split it and using a small spoon, or ones hands (thumbnail) to scrape away said layer. There is no heat in the exterior of a jalapeno.

Waste of time to watch this shit.

👍🏻

They use the stones to clean the beans 🫘😃👍🏻

Let me get this straight you soak overnight then cook for hour then bite but it wasn't until you wash it that this dirt clot broke down to dirt I'll be dammed

I just left a video where someone was giving wrong information about beans in general LOL! Then I clicked to yours and you were getting everything right :P The other dude even said to not even bother checking for stones, because finding one is good luck LOL!

I love beans, many greetings from Brunswick in Germany :)

Thanks for the great recipe! I started cooking pinto beans a few weeks ago. My first batch was not good - old, expired, tough beans and a really bland recipe. With this recipe, they are awesome!

👍😍

i was into this till he bi7ched out on the jalapeño seeds haha :P jk thx for this

You remind me of bob ross...

This whole video could be done in 2 minutes just saying

I always look thru beans and I too have found the dirt clumps and occasional rock!

I know it’s good when smack while your eat them. I always have way to much juice when cook beans I made something like this put use hamburger meat.

Isn’t it better to cook the bacon in the pan and then sauté your onion in the bacon fat along with the jalapeños? I think that would add more flavor.

you can use smoked ham hocks instead of bacon

two table spoons of what????fts

What size bag of beans did you use?

I've never had beans cook in 1 1/2 hours, minimum 3 hrs and sometimes more. Also, that was the worst bacon ever, 90% fat, got to inspect that bacon before buying. Otherwise decent recipe, a variety of chilies would be good, a serrano would liven it up...

looks like the texas homestyle pinto beans this guy is making is a bad ripoff of mexican frijole charros.

Remove the seeds... lol

Some people are hard to listen to.

Um ok but someone told me to soak my beans overnight in salt and I did and now im watching the salt part and freaking out

Can I not use the meat?

i love it.. I also make mine this way .. but I make my Mexican rice and when making my my bowl I add the rice in it..

What a coincidence! I’m cooking beans and I’m stoned, but the beans aren’t.

(...all I have is turkey bacon🙈... could I use that or not so much?)

Made me so hungry, I put a pot on myself right now. Thanks for yhe inspiration!! Good way to filter out rocks is to pour 1 cup of dry beans into a cup.Then pour a small amount of those beans from the cup onto a paper plate. Shake the plate, and anything that shouldn't be mixed in with the beans will stand out like a sore thumb while you're shaking the plate because the beans will all be pretty uniform in size and anything else will not and will stand out. Pick out those stones, any bad looking beans, etc, fold the paper plate a bit and pour those filtered beans right into your pot. Repeat for as many beans as you intend to cook. I'm sure that this gent's beans are just delicious, but so are mine.😃 Some folks do differently(I've never soaked them overnight. I rinse them, boil them for 5 minutes, cover and let sit 1 hour). Then put in my ham, bacon, onion, chopped green and/or chopped jalapeño pepper, onion salt, black pepper, just a little comino powder, and plenty of garlic(I like a lot of it!). Slow cook on the stove covered for at least 2 more hours or so(3 to get them really soft)...stirring every half hour or so...add in more water as needed. If you add enough ham, or pig feet, etc...just the beans and bread, garlic toast, or cornbread will be a full meal. I've even added some Rotel into mine. Maybe just a few spriggs of cilantro. Lotsa variations. Usually I will mash some of the beans, after they're well cooked, in the pot to make the soupy bean liquid thicker. Then just dip that toast, bread, cornbread, tortillas, even chicharones into a big bowl of those beans and man! Sure good eatin' !

This looks like a great recipe. How many beans did you use in the pot about 2/3 cups?

I sauté my bacon to render it’s fat, and to bring out more of the bacon flavor.

A double-sided melon baller is thinner and is perfect for cleaning peppers.
Good video.

My family is from Texas and they make these often. But they call them chilli beans. They also add ground beef or turkey

Texas? Just use bell pepper, never understood why a person would rape peppers

I know there is no such thing as too much bacon, but that is too much bacon...Max 3 slices chopped per lb. of dried beans. There is going to be so much grease in those..You fry the 3 slices of chopped bacon until it is just starting to brown then you pour that and the grease into your beans and proceeded to cook. Never put your onions in at the beginning. Those go in during the final 8-10 minutes of cooking, otherwise, they are just cooked to nothing and don't really add any flavor. ...I have other ingredients we use such as epazote and chili powder but they are optional. Some folks don't like cumin and epazote. In S. Texas and been making beans for 60 years and my people before that. Grew up on them. Loved your presentation and version anyway.

having been eating beans , for most of my life, my mother, including myself have never soaked beans. (Rinse, yes). But soak, never! You sure know what your doing, when it come cooking the beans. Thumbs up! Good job!! Keep them coming
