Charro Beans

"Delicious and easy Mexican charro beans are pinto beans simmered with bacon, ham, onions, garlic, and tomatoes, with the perfect balance of spicy and smokey seasonings. For folks who love a lot of flavors, this is your dish.This is one of our favorite dishes. There is no presoaking the beans, and leftovers heat up like a dream. It freezes well and tastes as good as the day you made it. I like to serve it with a hunk of cornbread or a few warmed tortillas. Or over Mexican rice or Charleston red rice. "
