Steps:
- Heat bacon in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat, stirring constantly, until fat is rendered and bacon is just starting to brown around the edges, about 5 minutes. Add onion and chilies and cook, stirring, until softened and just starting to brown, about 4 minutes. Add garlic and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add tomatoes (see note above) and cook, stirring and scraping up browned bits from the bottom of the pan, until the liquid is thick and the mixture begins to sizzle, about 3 minutes.
- Add beans, stock, bay leaves, 2 teaspoons (10g) kosher salt, and epazote (if using). Bring to a boil over high heat, reduce to a bare simmer, cover, and cook until beans are just tender, about 45 minutes. Remove lid and continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until beans are completely creamy and liquid has thickened into a rich, creamy broth. Season to taste with salt. Discard bay leaves, stir in cilantro, and serve. Beans can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.

BRAISED COLLARD GREENS AND BACON-PEPPER PINTO BEANS
We skip the meat main and make beloved Southern sides the focus of the meal-easy to do with a heap of garlicky braised greens and protein-packed pinto beans with a hit of crispy bacon. Serve with skillet cornbread: Heat a cast-iron skillet on the stovetop while the oven preheats, and swirl in a couple teaspoons oil to the pan before adding the batter. If you can't find collards, substitute stemmed curly kale or turnip greens, checking for doneness at around 20 minutes. For a vegetarian meal, sub vegetable stock for chicken stock and 1 tablespoon canola oil for the bacon drippings. Try this in Sautéed Snapper with Curried Greens and Smoky Potato and Greens Tacos.

PINTO BEANS WITH PEACHES AND BACON
Before you wonder off to your next stop online...hear me out on this one. I know it sounds strange. Taking our kids out for dinner is an adventure. We don't go out often, but when we do it's usually with family, so we at least have a 1 on 1 ratio at the table. We divide and conquer, which makes the whole dining experience a little easier...but they are still wiggly. "Get down from there." "Don't stare at their food. And stop complaining about the wait. We know you are hungry!" "Please stop 'falling' out of your chair." "Sit up, this is not our house and you can't lay on the seat." Those of you with littles...you've said these things before. I can't be alone in this. Our kids know how to sit still. But they are kids and their sitting still usually last no more than 5 minutes. They would just prefer to be in motion! One of the ways that we combat the wiggles at restaurants is by visiting restaurants with play areas. So far we have discovered several near us. We find ourselves frequenting these places, especially Two Bros. BBQ Market because it's super close to where we live. It's reasonably priced and we can feed our crew for less than most other restaurants! The first time I had their beans was at night and I was totally puzzled by them, as we were eating outside, it was dim and I couldn't tell by looking at them what was added. I could tell there was something mixed in, but couldn't place the flavor the first few bites. It was something sweet, but not to sweet. It was perfectly balanced with the spice from the sauce and the smokiness from the bacon. By the time I'd finished my portion of beans, I'd figured out that there were diced peaches mixed in with the beans and the bacon. Seriously, great (and clever) addition to the beans. The peaches are a tasty addition and a great balancer of the spice and smoke flavors! Here's a remake of their Pinto Beans with Peaches and Bacon y'all! (These would be great for a family BBQ, or to make at the start of the weekend and eat throughout the weekend with food from the grill!)
