Recipe: Frijoles Charros - a.k.a. Frijoles RancherosJuan Parada
If you loved the frijoles puercos (recipe here), let me show this recipe the has my whole family eating beans on weekly basis. I would recommend to make this dish well ahead and store them in the refrigerator or freeze them for convenience.
List of Ingredients:
Step 1: Pre-soak your beans for at least 2-8 hours (images: before and after). This helps with the cooking time.
Step 2: Get chopping or slicing. I'll tell you right now, size does not matter at this point, just for the meats and the slices of jalapeño. Those do serve for decoration purposes too. So far really easy right?
Step 3: Cook the chorizo and bacon. The chorizo adds flavor, but the bacons adds flavor and texture. Just something to note when chopping the bacon.
Step 4: And final step. Bring the water and beans to a boil, then add all ingredients to the pot. Cook them the same amount of time you would with just beans. This can be minutes or hours, depending on the size of your pot, amount of water, and you covered it or not. I covered mine but you need to be close by to keep the boiling down. This is where pre-soaking helps.
Please note this is a hardy meal and we highly recommend pairing it with tortilla de harina. Also, this is a very hard dish to find, either you make it or go buy some from Fat Boyz Tacos. You will not regret it.
