Pinto Beans

For a barbecue or picnic, this low-fat side dish is delicious with grilled meats.

Ingredients
  • 1 pound dry pinto beans
  • 8 cups water
  • 2 smoked pork hocks
  • 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
  • Dash liquid smoke (optional)
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 2 tablespoons chili powder
  • 1 to 2 whole canned jalapenos, drained, seeded, and chopped*
  • 2 to 3 dashes bottled hot pepper sauce
  • Bottled barbecue sauce (optional)
Directions
  • Rinse beans. Combine with 4 cups of the water in a Dutch oven. Bring to boiling; reduce heat. Simmer 2 minutes. Remove from heat. Cover; let stand 1 hour. (Or, place beans and 4 cups water in a large bowl; cover. Set in a cool place 6 to 8 hours.)
  • Drain beans and rinse. Return to pan. Add remaining 4 cups water and ham hocks. Stir in Worcestershire sauce, liquid smoke (if desired), onion, garlic powder, chili powder, jalapeno pepper, and pepper sauce.
  • Bring to boiling; reduce heat. Cover and simmer 2-1/2 hours or until beans are tender. Add more water, if necessary, and stir occasionally. Add barbecue sauce to taste during last 5 to 10 minutes of cooking, if desired. Remove pork hocks; remove meat from bones and discard bones. Chop meat and stir into beans. Makes 8 to 10 servings.
Note
