Equipment

  • Slow Cooker

Ingredients

  • 4 strips bacon uncooked and cut into small pieces
  • 1 pound dried pinto beans (preferably soaked overnight)
  • 2 tbsp garlic
  • 1 bottle beer (I used Modelo)
  • 1 white onion minced
  • 1 Roma tomato chopped
  • 1 bunch fresh cilantro chopped with stem removed
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1 tsp chili powder
  • 16 ounces chicken stock
  • 1 jalapeño seeds removed optional
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Begin by spraying your slow cooker with non-stick spray.
  • Add the bacon, pinto beans, and garlic.
  • Add the remaining ingredients and stir.
  • Cook on low for 6 to 8 hours.

Notes

Add a jalapeño for a little extra kick or leave it out according to your personal taste. Be sure that the beans have plenty of chicken stock or water as they cook or they will dry out.
