My ex Latina mother in law taught me how to cook amazing Mexican food , she always told me the same thing about the salt , don’t add it until almost done or the beans will be tougher . Thanks for your recipes!! ❤
Very nice. I would be tempted to add a bit of garlic too. Just a suggestion, it would've been nice if you ended with some served in a bowl, just to see the very end result plated up as it were! Maybe with some bread. I was waiting for that!
I often soak beans with a tablespoons of apple cider vinegar to further remove most of phytic acids, lectins and other nasties on the skins. 🐻 and I love seasoning my cooked beans with fish sauce instead of salt.
Just like familias !! Like the onions tomatoes and peppers at the end !! Like you said you would use lard on them o also like bacon grease for the refrying!! Gonna use the hell out of it !! Great recipe !!
This is how I make my charro beans, stopping short of mashing. However I did use my charro beans to make refried beans before and they were the BEST refried beans I ever had. yummy
Same although it was a can of charro beans from the store.It was all I had at the time i cooked them and then mashed them until smooth. Best refried beans ever! Now its all I use.
I had some leftover taco meat and only soft tacos remaining from "taco night". What should I make from these leftovers? I decided to make some beans (first time), and try for a burrito. After soaking overnight, I was pleasantly surprised when my beans were done with only a one hour cooking time! Wow, the beans are absolutely delicious in this recipe. Soooo flavorful! I love the fact that going forward, I can cut my meat in half by supplementing with beans. Excellent recipe Freddsters! Thanks for sharing! fyi- I added cheddar cheese to the beans, because ....cheddar makes it better!
Delicious. Waste not, want not for me, I'd have kept that beautiful garlic and the onion from the long cook. I love beans, they're so great with so many things to enjoy. 😊❤
Was always intimidated at the thought of trying to make refried beans but this makes it look so easy! (Also thank you for your Mexican fried chicken sandwich & dip recipes - they’re both frequent favorites in our house!)
Be careful not to add hot liquid to plastic maybe I was wrong watching the video but I always recommend yes the video was fantastic I will share 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
Because of my cholesterol levels I can't add oil to my beans. So I add more water instead but not too much.But enough water & I let them cook longer until they thicken. Then they thicken that way like putting oil in them.
I use dried chopped onions or onion powder to give flavor, but not taste onions ( lol sounds funny) but my son and husband don’t like onions in their food and they never complain and love when I do this .
For the most part the wives tale of not salting your beans while cooking is nonsense. Maybe back in the pioneer days when cooking over a camp fire. It might add a few minutes to the cooking process but that is it. If your beans are reasonably fresh it should not effect outcome of your beans. Great looking dish.
I just met you on here whilst searching out ideas but I see we have the same ideas and any new ones I haven’t thought about (like freezing beans), and are useful I truly appreciate, so gracias! 🥹🫶🏽.
I love ham hocks in my pinto beans.
Love the idea of adding jalapeños/tomato/onion to refried!
It’s sooo delicious
Same here! I can't wait to try to make this.

Refried beans look Yummm!!
Looks great! I am pretty loyal to my slow cooker. I love how the house smells when I make beans for dinner.
Definitely!! Always makes you remember memories and just gives you a big comforting feeling , smells and tastes so good! ❤
Great instructions. Thank you!
Looks great..can’t wait to make some 😊
PLEASE PLEASE make full length videos on UA-cam that would be awesome 😆☺️☺️
Wow.. I love for you to make charro beans.. or even frijoles puercos I just here people talk about them 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
I used smokes turkey wings/legs for meat flavor in my homemade pinto beans
Good idea, I’ve used a hambone before it’s good as well
I knew this recipe was going to be fire the moment I saw the beans in the damn Ziploc bag.
Haha 😆 🙌🏼
We make them the same way. Those refried beans same also. But I’d probably eat em all in 3 days 😂
Thank you. Just found your page on Instagram. New fan here.👋
My great aunt used bacon grease sometimes 🤷🏻♀️
Yes and cut up bacon also is good !
Oh wow! Yummy
I have a question - how do kids get accustomed to the heat of the peppers ?
Thanks
Awesome 😊
I love your videos. Do you ever make huaraches? Or sopes? I love them but have never made either of them
I’ve shared a couple videos on sopes & one on huaraches a couple months ago on both Tik Tok & Instagram
❤ I am a new subscriber! Love your work. Any ideas on how to make beans less gassy? Eres el mero mero. You know your stuff.
Soaking the beans makes them more easily digestible.
Do you ever use epazote in your beans?
Yum! I am new here love your videos
So yummy!
Very 😋😋😋

You could try avocado oil , it’s really good for you .
What if I don’t have that garlic I have minced
😍
I don’t like onions is it a must to add onions?
It is your pot of beans. Leave the onion out.
I use dried chopped onions or onion powder to give flavor, but not taste onions ( lol sounds funny) but my son and husband don’t like onions in their food and they never complain and love when I do this .

Not a good recipe.
What’s your reason? Just curious….
have you ever tried this in the slow cooker?
I haven’t, but I’m sure it would work
