If you have told me when I was younger that’d I’d eat black beans and love them, I would have told you that you were crazy! But, wow, they’re healthy, inexpensive, and easy to prepare! What’s not to like!?

You can serve these beans alone, with a dollop of sour cream, or over rice or quinoa.

CUBAN BLACK BEANS AND SAUSAGE

  1. You can use pork, chicken, or turkey sausage. As well you could use ground beef, turkey, or chicken.
  2. For the jalapeno, you can use fresh or pickled.
  3. As well, you can use real bacon bits instead of cooking it yourself.
  4. You can use canned, rinsed black beans. In this case, after you cook the sausage and bacon, simmer all the ingredients on the stove for about 30 minutes or bake at 300 for 50 to 60 minutes.
  5. Alternatively, you can cook this in a slow cooker. After browning the sausage and bacon, place everything in the slow cooker and cook on low 6 to 8 hours, or high 4 hours.

TO SOAK OR NOT TO SOAK

  • 24 Hour method: Place the dried beans in a large bowl and cover with cold water. Allow to soak for 24 hours. Drain and rinse the beans before proceeding.
  • Quick method: (I prefer the 24 Hour method. It seems as if the beans get softer.) Add beans to a large pot and cover with hot water. Bring to a boil and boil for 2 minutes. Turn off the heat, cover the pot, and allow the beans to sit in the hot water for one hour. Drain the beans and rinse them with cold water before proceeding with the recipe.
  • Instant Pot: If you forgot to soak the beans and really don’t want to wait you can 1. use canned beans 2. use an Instant Pot pressure cooker. I don’t have an Instant Pot but I found this cooking time guide for you.
