While I keep canned beans in my pantry for emergencies, I much prefer to soak and cook my own beans

  • 4 cups pinto beans (soaked in water, overnight)
  • 4 slices of thick cut bacon (or ham hock, or salt pork or ham)
  • 1 hamhock, optional (I had one in the freezer, so I added with bacon...we love the flavor)
  • 3 to 4 garlic cloves, finely minced (this is my own personal touch)
  • 1 to 2 onions, finely chopped (I love them, so in they went)
  • Seasonings (after beans cooked, and to taste)
  • 1 teaspoon of salt
  • 2 teaspoons of ground black pepper
  • Dash of hot sauce (we love it)
  • 1 tablespoon cumin, optional (I love it, so I added that)
