Cowboy beans from The Homesick Texan's Family Table: Lone Star Cooking from My Kitchen to Yours by Lisa Fain

Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

    I cut this in 1/2 & it will easily serve 2 of us as a side over 2 nights. With no beef jerky here, I used some crispy chopped bacon instead. Warned by member "soupy" comments, I went lighter on the 2nd amt of water & was prepared to add more (which I did but used beef broth) during the bake. The result is a thick, flavourful pot of beans and I will make these guys again.

    Very good but 1st time I made it a bit soupy. Second time dry. Looking for the happy medium

    I made a quarter of the recipe. I scaled all the ingredients but I did not follow the cooking instructions at all, I used the instant pot for this. I quick soaked the beans, used Pacific Gold jerky from Costco, instant coffee granules, Dijon mustard, put everything in the IP with 2 cups of water and high pressured for 10 minutes, natural released after 5 minutes. The beans were perfectly cooked, however, it was too soupy and the flavor was good even though diluted. Next time I used 1 cup of water instead.
