...or Drunken Beans. Why just simmer plain ol' pinto beans when you can add a few ingredients and have MUY Delish Drunken Beans?? I prefer a dark beer for this recipe but any you have on hand should be fine. I used some heirloom Good Mother Stallard beans from Rancho Gordo growers here in Cali. They are available online along with a bunch of other fabulous varieties. I was skeptical that the varietal would make much of a difference in this recipe but guess what, it really does. These beans soak up so plump and cook up with fabulous texture and flavor all by themselves. Surprise. WARNING- do NOT salt until beans have simmered at least an hour or you'll end up with gritty beans!
