Folks...remember that if you use a Mexican style, "molcajete" (what Kent calls a masher) if you buy one new from the store, you need to cure it before you grind any food. They are made of volcanic rock. Use the piedra (the rounded mashing stone) and grind the bowl part. Place 2 cups of white rice in and star grinding. When the rice is ground up and completely turns black, throw it away and add more rice. Repeat grinding. As long as the rice turns black and dusty, the bowl is still not cured. When the rice grinds clean, throw it out and fill up the bowl with dish soap and boiling hot water, let set for about 5 minutes and rise out. Happy grinding.

[@colejohnson3705]

Ive tried different spices, but after having some of the best beans I'd ever eaten at my 95 year old Mother's home, I asked her for her secret recipe. Her answer :Pinto beans, ham bone, salt, pepper and onion on a low simmer. Sometimes simpler is just better. Momma knows !

I've been cooking Capo Cowboy Beans for 50 yrs. I use beer instead of water. it adds a great taste. Tecate, or PBR. I make them when it's my turn to cook at American Legion Post 721 here in San Juan Capistrano. We had beans at the Barbecues we had in Capo when I was a little boy. Always pintos. Essentially the same recipe as here.

[@victorcabanelas]

Nice recipe as always! Small note, if you can, add a couple bay leaves. For some reason, they get rid of the gas that usually comes with beans (and don't take my word for it, it was one of my mom's secrets which I tried to debunk for years in vain). Cheers from Argentina, keep up the great work!

[@stephensmith3111]

A tale that I learned from my father: A panel van pulls up at a large corral and a young bull hops out. He looks around at all the cows and gets a gleam in his eye. "Ohhhh boy!" A second van pulls up and a much bigger, more mature bull steps out. He surveys the area, spots the youngster and says, "Three quarters of the cows are mine, you can have the rest." The little bull is disappointed, but says to himself, "Well, that's still a lot of cows." A third van shakely pulls up, barely able to stay up on it's wheels. The side panels are nearly all smashed out from the inside. The driver quickly gets out and runs for dear life. The back doors of the van explode open and the biggest, strongest, meanest bull ever seen in living memory leaps out. Without bothering to look, he bellows out, "All of the cows are mine!" The little bull lowers his head and starts snorting and pawing the ground with his hooves. The second bull sees this and says, "Kid, you're not seriously thinking of challenging that monster, are you?" The little bull replies, "Heck no. I just want to make sure he knows that I'm not a cow."

Beans seem to be a unilaterally-accepted survival food. When I was stuck in the Netherlands last winter, I kept myself and my housemates fed with a recipe not much unlike this; it only differs in the spices and the meats. I've used basil, pepper, paprika, red chili flakes and bay leaves alongside a good cut of Csabai sausages from home. The Dutch didn't see proper snow in years and our crummy student-apartment had poor insulation, but damn me if those beans didn't keep us warm!

I love this recipe. It’s delicious, and not expensive. Money is getting tighter, every little bit helps.

[@jdmohr6178]

I loved that city dude’s reaction after trying Kent’s dish on the show Chopped ….”and those beans, my God-they were great!” Haha! I wonder if he had any idea how many pots of beans Kent has cooked over the years - it’s second nature to him, like pulling on his boots in the morning! Keep up the good work, Kent!

In love with this one, making it for the 4th time today. I've found adding tomato paste/sauce/diced tomatoes along with ground beef basically makes an enhanced chilli. I've been using smoked bacon ends from a local butcher, plan to try tossing some smoked ham in this go around.

[@CowboyKentRollins]

Sounds great!

[@thomaswolf6507]

@@CowboyKentRollins Smells amazing. Only downside here is I have a huge ham in the oven and it takes a long time to cook (along with the pinto beans) and I'm on watch duty while everyone else gets drunk. Ah well, I think it's my best batch yet. I appreciate your recipes - they are amazing and help reduce eating expenses with inflation.

The most exciting part of camping for me is outdoor cooking and Cowboy Beans are definitely worth trying on my next camping trip.😋

I like cooking beans just about like Kent does. I also cook corn bread to go with it, and top the beans off with some chopped onions. Add some sweet iced tea and you've got a fine meal!

I am 75 years old. I did not grow up in the the west, rather, in the midwest. My father was from old south "Luzzianna". He was not actually Cajun or Creole. I grew up eating beans 'n rice and still cook them the old fashioned way. ... I loved watching you prepare and cook the western style cowboy beans. In my younger days I did live in Texas and in Colorado for several years each. Your recipe has many things in common with my bean recipe. (I also mix red beans and pinto beans sometimes. Most of the the times I use one or the other alone.) ... Man, you made me hungry! 😋

Thanks James for watching and i do love some beans

My sweet hubby loved beans. He' been gone 5 1/2 years and I have my first "date" tomorrow so I think I'll wait until after tomorrow to make your delicious beans. I'd rather make some beans for my sweetie but it isn't going to happen for a while so I'll make some of your beans after tomorrow. I think there are your beans in Heaven! That's where I'll make your beans for me and my sweet hubby.

@@dwightschrute4560 I might see him again. We live in the same small town. I gave him a hug when he brought me home and I might have scared him. lol I haven't made the beans yet. I've found that I don't usually like to cook meals just for myself much. I used to cook for a hubby and 6 kids and now it's just me and my dog. And my dog likes whatever I make and he usually gets a few little bites. If I get in the mood I'll make the beans and walk to my Dad's house with them. He lives right behind me and loves beans. Maybe when, or should I say if, it cools down some. Have you made any of Kent's recipes? They all look good.

In Chile (the country) we make the beans more or less as shown here but we add a lot of pumpkin (diced and mashed) and near the end we add dried noodles and we call it "porotos con riendas" (beans with reins). En Chile (el país) hacemos los porotos más o menos como se muestra aquí pero le agregamos bastante zapallo (cortado en cubitos y pisado) y cerca de terminar le agregamos tallarines secos y a eso lo llamamos "porotos con riendas"

[@jamesthomas759]

[@05carsm]

I have to ask....I'm from South Africa, and the only exposure to cowboy cookin' was was the tv....old shows and movies from the '70s growing up..... It always seemed like they'd be eating scrambled eggs with the beans for breakfast... Is that a thing? Thanks.

[@debravogt7139]

My mother always used white onions. She would put them in the pot, but she would keep some in reserve to top off the beans! I still love that!

[@SageOfHeaven]

I loved the way those cowboys took their hats of while watching the traditional native american sermony/dance! Respect goes both ways.

[@theoutdoorsman9726]

Awesome looking recipe!! That’s my childhood right there. I was raised up on soup beans. My mamaw made a big ol pot of mixed soup beans and hot fresh cornbread every few days. Couldn’t beat ‘em for what they were, as they’re delicious, and they are really filling unlike a lot of other vegetables they pack quite a bit of protein and they keep you feeling full longer and most importantly, they’re cheap!! Like cowboy Kent said, you can feed a lot of people with a pound of dried beans and that pound is cheap often at my local grocers, you can find the grocery stores own brand packaging beans and they’re like 2 1lb packs for $1!! Can’t beat that with anything guys!!!

We have breakfast, dinner, supper here, ain't no lunch or brunch, that is a French meal for folks that are to lazy to get up for church, lol. We eat ours with chunks of raw onions, bowl of chow-chow,& greens( turnip, mustard collards, spinach, dandelion,etc...) & real cornbread on the side( none of that jiffy stuff), & a cold glass of buttermilk, delicious.
