How to make hearty cowboy beans in a slow cooker
In short: This video demonstrates how to prepare Frijoles Charros using a slow cooker. It is a versatile recipe that allows for various meats, bean types, and liquids to create a personalized version of these traditional cowboy beans.
The process begins by rinsing 500g of dry pinto beans and cooking 250g of chopped bacon until the fat has rendered and the meat is crispy. These ingredients, along with cumin, chili powder, onion, jalapeño, broth, and garlic, are combined in a slow cooker.
The recipe requires cooking the mixture on low for seven hours before adding crushed tomatoes for a final hour of cooking. For a variation known as Borracho Beans, one can substitute the water with beer.
