Made this recipe last night to go with tacos. Replaced the bacon with chorizo & added liquid smoke. Delicious!!

I love this recipe! I must admit that I did soak and sprout the beans first, helps with digesting. The soy sauce added another layer of flavor. A friend who competes at BBQ cooking competition’s begged me for the secret “ingredient”. Think I should tell her, or maybe I should direct her to your website?? 😉

This is our favorite Pinto Bean recipe. love the flavors and texture. We left out the Jalapeño because the little one isn’t a fan of spice but we added a touch of heat after served. As with your black bean recipe you two always come out the best. Thank You.

I made stock from leftover bone-in turkey thighs (not smoked) and used that and added the turkey meat to cook the beans. Along with cumin, I love toasting coriander seeds and then grinding them, providing a distinctive flavor that pairs well with the cumin. This will be one of the sides for our 4th of July taco party. Looking forward to sharing them with everyone!

Btw, I use a Moosoo 6 qt PC that I’m quite happy with.

Same here but I forget each time I make them. I also add a little bit more liquid.
Great recipe!

I made Pinto beans last night to go with our dinner. They were so good and tender. I followed the recipe but had to add 20 minutes to the cooking time.

This is our FAVORITE recipe for pinto beans — I’ve made them several times already. We live at high altitude (6,000 ft), so our beans take longer to cook (1:30 hours). I usually chop up the (raw) bacon before adding it to the Instant Pot. Saves a step. I use the Duo SV model of Instant Pot. Thank you Amy & Jacky for writing such delicious recipes with GREAT instructions!

These are great! I am not a big fan of beans on their own but these have such great flavor and so easy to make. Highly recommend! I used a Faberware pressure cooker with no issues.

Fantastic recipe. I usually make a few changes after my first run when I try a new recipe, but this one needs no adjustments. I made the beans in my Instant Pot Duo – the big one.

The beans are great alone or used for homemade chili.
