Number Of Ingredients 10

1 1/2 Lb Pinto Beans, Rinsed And Drained
3 Cups Water
2 Cups Beef Stock
3/4 Lb Pork, Cut Into Small Chunks
3/4 Lb Ham Steak With Bone, Cut Into Small Chunks
1 Onion, Chopped
4 Garlic Clove, Chopped
1 Bay Leaf
1/2 Lb Chorizo, Cut Into Small Chunks
Salt And Pepper, To Taste

Steps:

In an 8 quart heavy pot, put beans and at least twice as much water. Cover and bring to boil. Turn off heat and let sit for 1 hour. Drain the beans and return to the pot. Add remaining ingredients except for the chorizo, salt and pepper. Bring to boil and simmer for 1 hour. Add chorizo and simmer uncovered for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Beans should be very tender and the liquid will thicken a bit. Taste to see if it needs salt and pepper.
