Frijoles Borrachos (Drunken Beans)

Frijoles Borrachos, which translates as drunken beans, are a variation of Frijoles Charros, named after Mexican cowboys for whom the beans, cooked on the campfire in a big pot, were named. When the beans are simmered in beer, they are referred to throughout Latin America as Frijoles Borrachos or just Borrachos.

Ingredients

  • 3 to 3 1/2 quarts water
  • 1/2 cup lard or vegetable oil
  • 2 white onion finely chopped
