BBQ beans (Yard House style)

3 (1) 45 min Serves 4 Mexican
Texas style barbecue beans, very similar to the Yard House restaurant recipe.

Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 3 spring onions, chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 to 2 Jalapenos, seeded and minced (adjust to taste)
  • 4 cup cooked pinto beans (substitute with red kidney beans)
  • 2 cup chicken broth
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1 cup barbecue sauce
  • 2 tbsp pureed Chipotle chilies in Adobo sauce (adjust to taste)
  • 2 tsp Tabasco sauce (or to taste)
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste

Method

In a medium heavy bottom pot over medium high heat add the olive oil, spring onions, garlic and jalapeno chile and cook for 2 minutes, until the garlic starts to turn golden brown.

Add the remaining ingredients, season with salt and pepper to taste and bring to a boil, stirring frequently. Reduce heat to minimum and simmer for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the beans start to break apart. Using the back of a spoon crush some of the beans against the sides of the cooking pot and stir to thicken the mixture. Taste and adjust with more salt, pepper, Chipotle puree and Tabasco sauce.

Serve hot with crusty bread.
