Yes my friend, I came from a restaurant family. They made me to start cooking at age 8.
1/3 Slab of bacon and get it half cooked in a large pot. Then add about a cup of water and then add ½ of a medium onion.. Then bring to a boil and simmer for 10 minutes. And add salt and pepper. I add maybe two garlic cloves smashed up and some chili powder and add about 4 slices of jalapeño. Mean while the beans have soaked for 4 to 12 hrs. The smell is going to kick in. Ok now after you added all the ingredients add hot water to about a inch below the rim of the pot and bring to a boil. Then bring to a simmer for close to 2 hrs.. Trick is you got to stir and maybe add more water. If you do add hot water Check every 5 minutes and stir. Taste it every 15 min for your taste and add accordingly
Hope this helps
Robin
