Servings: persons

1 lb dried pinto bean, soaked overnight
8 cups water (plus more as needed)
12 ounces Coca-Cola
14 1/2 ounces whole tomatoes, canned, undrained
2 onions, chopped (medium sized)
3 slices bacon, preferably a smoky slab variety, chopped
3 tablespoons chili powder
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon ground cumin
3 -4 serranos (fresh) or 3 -4 jalapenos, chopped
1 teaspoon salt (or more to taste)
1 cup sausage, grilled and sliced (optional)

1
Soak the beans overnight in water to cover. Drain.
2
In a Dutch oven or stockpot, combine all the ingredients except the salt and sausage. Bring the beans to a boil over high heat and then reduce to a simmer. Cook slowly, stirring up from the bottom occasionally, for at least 2 to 3 hours, depending on your batch of beans. Add more water if the beans begin to seem dry. Stir in the salt and meat, if desired, in the last 30 minutes of cooking. The beans should still hold their shape but be soft and just a little soupy.
3
Serve the beans in bowls with a bit of the cooking liquid. The beans reheat especially well.
