BBQ Refried Beans
Ingredients
- 2 TB Olive or Avocado oil
- 1/2 Onion – diced
- 1 Jalapeno – seeded diced
- 1-2 cloves Garlic – minced
- 1-2 TS House of Q Grandma's Garden or Competition Beef Rub
- 1-2 TS House of Q Peppered Bovine
- 1 TB Ancho or chili powder
- 2 cans black beans, drained or pinto, mixed whichever you prefer, drained, rinsed
- 1 cup chicken or vegetable stock
Instructions
- In a skillet, add the oil and onion. Saute until the onions are getting soft. Add the jalapeno and the spices, stir. Add the drained beans and the stock. Bring to a boil and simmer for 20-40 minutes stirring often. The beans will soften and the stock will evaporate. Either mash with a potato masher for a “rough” texture or blend in a blender until smooth. Serve warm in taco’s or tostada’s or chill and use as a dip.
