This has been posted here for play in Culinary Quest - Texas found at homesicktexan.com. The homesicktexan states, my mom says, “Pinto beans are close to a perfect food.” Mom would soak them overnight and slow cook them all day with garlic, onions, spices and her secret ingredient—jalapeno juice. She’d add pork if it was available, but it was the jalapeno juice that gave her beans their fantastic flavor.
