SOUTHERN PINTO BEANS
Steps:
- Inspect the beans to remove any small rocks or debris. Rinse well.
- Place the beans, 8 cups of water, ham hock, bouillion cubes, and chopped onion in a large pot with a lid. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer. Add salt to taste. I usually add about 1 teaspoon, but the exact amount of salt needed will vary based on the sodium level in the brand of bouillon and your taste.
- Cook over medium low for 1 1/2 to 2 hours or until tender to your liking. Remove the ham hock, shred the meat, and return it to the pot, if desired.
SAN FERNANDO BEANS
I got this recipe from David Wade's (a renowned chef) radio show last Spring. He got the recipe from some place in San Fernando. They are delicious and the flavor can be changed depending on the type of apples, spiciness of the sausage and amounts of chili powder. Only problem I have is remembering to soak them overnight.

CHEF JOHN'S SANTA MARIA-STYLE BEANS
Classic Santa Maria-style beans are made with a special variety of pink beans called pinquitos. These 'little pink' beans are prepared in a spicy, smoky, tomato/chili sauce that's spiked with not one, but two kinds of pork. Santa Maria beans have come into my life relatively late, so I plan on making up for lost time this barbecue season.

Steps:
- Place pink beans into a large container and cover with several inches of cool water; let stand 8 hours to overnight. Drain.
- Place drained beans in a stockpot with enough cold water to cover. Bring to a simmer and cook until almost completely tender, about 1 hour 45 minutes.
- While beans are simmering, cook and stir bacon in a large saucepan over medium heat until cooked through but not crispy, 5 to 7 minutes. Add ham; cook and stir until ham is heated through, about 1 minute. Stir garlic into ham mixture and cook until garlic is fragrant, about 1 minute more. Add tomatoes, 1/2 cup water, ketchup, sugar, dry mustard, paprika, chili powder, salt, chipotle chile powder, and oregano. Bring to a simmer, reduce heat to low, and cook until flavors blend, about 30 minutes.
- Drain beans, reserving 1 cup of the cooking liquid. Combine beans, reserved liquid, and tomato mixture in the beans stockpot; bring to a simmer, reduce heat to low, and cook, stirring occasionally, until beans are tender and mixture has thickened, about 30 minutes.

ROSA'S MEXICAN RICE AND SAN ANTONIO REFRIED BEANS
Beans and rice create an unassuming but essential backdrop for the quintessential Tex-Mex meal-leave them out and you'll probably hear about it. Rosa Albiter Espinoza, who has worked for more than seven years in the Rather Sweet kitchen, makes her Mexican rice regularly for our lunch specials. She prefers Adolphus rice, a long-grain variety native to Texas. When I'm preparing a Tex-Mex spread for a party, I make sure to serve a pot of rice and plenty of refried black beans.

Steps:
- In a large stockpot set over medium heat, heat the oil and sauté the onion and garlic for about 2 minutes; add the rice and cook, stirring frequently, until it is light brown, about 5 minutes. Add the carrots, tomato sauce, and chicken stock. Bring to a boil, decrease the heat to medium-low, and add the frozen peas. Cover and cook until the liquid is absorbed, about 15 minutes. Remove the rice from the heat and let sit for another 10 minutes. Fluff and serve.
- Sort the beans to get rid of any foreign matter; rinse well in a colander; and set aside. In a large stockpot set over medium-high heat, cook the bacon about 10 minutes. Decrease the heat to medium; add the onion, celery, jalapeños, and garlic. Cook until the onion gets soft, about 3 minutes. Add the beans, chicken stock, and salt; bring to a boil. Decrease the heat and simmer, uncovered, until the stock has been mostly absorbed and the beans are tender, about 2 1/2 hours. Spoon the mixture, including the bacon and vegetables, into the jar of a blender (in batches, if necessary) or the work bowl of a food processor fitted with the metal blade and puree until smooth. Pour the vegetable oil into the unwashed stockpot set over medium-high heat. Add the pureed bean mixture to the stockpot and cook, stirring, until the beans are hot and bubbling, about 3 minutes. Serve warm.
- The rice can be made up to 1 day in advance, cooled, covered, and refrigerated. To reheat, stir in 1/2 cup water and cook in a saucepan over medium heat, stirring frequently, until the rice is thoroughly heated.
- I'm always busy and I'm often behind. When I discover a shortcut, I take it. All of the books advise soaking black beans before cooking, but I have found that this recipe turns out just fine without a soak. While the beans take a little longer to cook, I'm spared the extra steps of soaking, rinsing, and draining. I always take the time to sort and rinse the beans; processing does not always rid them of dirt or tiny stones.
- To make this dish even faster to prepare, substitute 3 (15-ounce) cans black beans for the dried beans and skip the long cooking time. Add the drained and rinsed beans to the sautéed bacon and vegetables, heat thoroughly and puree, then follow the directions as above.
