Ingredients
Preparation
Sort and rinse the beans and put in a 3 quart lidded sauce pan. Cover with water about 3 inches above the level of the beans. Stir in the salt and cook covered on low for 4-5 hours, stirring occasionally. If the beans start getting thick or more liquid is needed, bring the water to a boil before adding it to the beans. The beans will get a nice, thickened broth when they are done. Add the pepper and onion and more salt to taste, if desired. Cook the beans an additional 30 minutes before serving. Garnish with plenty of Monterrey Jack cheese.
