> Name: Cowboy Beans (Frijoles Charros)
> Serves: 12
> Key Ingredient: beans
> Preparation: pressure cook, crock pot
> Cuisine: Mexican
> Food Group: legume
> Meals:
> Courses: side
>
> Comments:
> A dish originating in Tamaulipas, Mexico, this is the classic
> accompaniment to the grilled beef dishes of northern Mexico. It is an
> ideal make-ahead dish, especially good with barbeque, improving as the
> flavors come together. Although the initial cooking of the beans can be
> done in a pressure cooker, a slow-cooking pot, such as a clay casserole,
> should be employed once the other ingredients have been added.
>
> Serrano chiles: The green ones are mild, but as they ripen and turn
> colors, they get more and more spicy. If you do get ripe peppers you can
> "tame the flame" by using fewer serranos' and substituting bell peppers.

> Ingredients:
> 1 lbs. or
