Categories     Beans

Time 5h10m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 cups dried red beans or 2 cups dried pinto beans
6 cups water
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 large tomatoes, peeled, seeded, and chopped or 1 pint tomato juice
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 lb bacon
shredded cheese

Steps:

  • Combine beans, water, garlic, tomato, and salt in slow cooker.
  • Cover. Cook on high 5 hours, stirring occasionally. When the beans become soft, drain off some liquid.
  • While the beans cook, brown bacon in skillet. Drain, reserving drippings. Crumble bacon. Add half of bacon and 3 tablespoons drippings to beans. Stir.
  • Mash or puree beans with a food processor. Fry the mashed bean mixture in the remaining bacon drippings. Add more salt to taste.
  • To serve, sprinkle the remaining bacon and shredded cheese on top of beans.
  • VARIATIONS:.
  • Instead of draining off liquid, add 1/3 cup dry minute rice and continue cooking about 20 minutes. Add a dash of hot sauce and a dollop of sour cream to individual servings.
  • Instead of frying the mashed bean mixture, place several spoonfuls on flour tortillas; roll up, and serve.

I wasn't a big fan of these refried beans. I found them to be a bit too salty and the bacon was too overpowering. I wouldn't make them again.

These refried beans were just okay. I found them to be a bit bland and the bacon was too crispy for my taste. I wouldn't make them again.

I've made refried beans many times before, but this recipe is by far the best. The bacon adds a wonderful flavor and the beans are so creamy and smooth. I will never make refried beans any other way again.
