I was really disappointed with this recipe. The beans were bland and mushy. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong.

These beans were a bit too spicy for my taste, but my husband loved them. I'll definitely make them again, but I'll use less chili powder next time.

I've made this recipe several times and it never disappoints. The beans are always flavorful and tender. I love that I can make it in my slow cooker, so it's easy to have a hot meal ready when I get home from work.
