Mexican Charro Beans
12 Servings
100% would make this recipe for Mexican Charro Beans again.
This is the closest I could come to what my father-in-law likes when he goes out to eat Mexican food. It's a combination of many recipes I've looked at and a lot of taste testing and experimenting.

Cover and cook on medium-low heat for several hours or until the beans are tender and you have a rich looking broth, stirring occasionally. Add some boiling water if needed during cooking. Cook the tomato, pepper, cilantro, and onion in the reserved drippings until the onions are soft. Remove the garlic from the beans and add the vegetable mixture. Cut the bacon in small pieces and add to the beans. Mix well and let it set on the stove for 15 minutes before serving. This freezes well.

This recipe has become a family favorite. Made it for my dad and now he makes it all the time. Easy and simple to makebut tastes just as good if not better that other more complex recipes.
