    The only problem I have, is I can never watch just one video. I end up watching a series of your videos, then go to the grocery store and buy a bunch of stuff, which is also not good, because its just me and my wife...
    Keep on rocking. I'm watching and enjoying every video. Gracias por todo.

    Hi Rachel,
    OMGosh! I made these refried beans. I left my whole, cooked beans in the refrigerator overnight for the flavors to marry. My son was in the kitchen when I finally got around to the second part, I waited another day. They married 2 days. I want to say though, prior to my review, that I am a connoisseur of refried beans, taste wise. I grew up with my Mom’s best friend’s recipe that she got from her friend, who was Mexican. Mom made that recipe for years when we had Mexican food. They were good, but as good as yours are. All my life I have judged a Mexican restaurant by their ability to make refried beans. If the beans were good, then the rest of the food was probably going to be good too. These beans have far surpassed any beans I have eaten anywhere. I used more bacon grease than 3 tablespoons, as 3 tablespoons would not make them sizzle like yours did. I used about 7 to 8 tablespoons. We do not have them very often, right? So that’s OK. Thank you for this recipe. I know my children will love them. I will treasure this recipe always. As I have said before, your Ron is a lucky man.

    Rachel, I use bacon at the end. I fry bacon in the skillet and leave the fat in it. I crumble the bacon and put it in while I am mashing the beans. I use lard as well, so two kinds of fat flavor. I really like having the browned bits from frying the bacon in the dish. That said, I was never taught to put anything in with the beans and water! I can't believe I never thought of it. I can't wait to try making refried beans with onion, garlic and bacon in the water! It's been years since I made refried beans because of all the fat and salt but now I am inspired by your knowledge to make them again! They are one of my favorite things to eat! I also like them just in a flour tortilla, maybe with a little salsa. I'm so excited to eat them again! Thank You! Oh, I also learned the right away to make enchilada sauce from you.

      Yay!! I'm so happy you like them, I know they are delicious, remember, after you make them they also freeze well, I usually put portions in ziploc bags and freeze them so when I need them later I just thaw what I need. Thank you so much for your comment and your support my friend. Happy New Year.❤

    Ok I am making a pot of beans today and I learned something new from you. The calories de pollo with tomato in the bean juice! Nice touch! Also, no more frying my bean in oil, I'm saving my bacon greese for this from now on. Also , I like your cebola y garlic when you are frying them. I cook my beans in the pot exactly the same way except for one thing.
    During the first boil I add 1/2 teaspoon of backing soda and scrape out the foam, when it begins to boil. I make sure all the foam is gone before letting it sit. I strain and rinse the beans well removing the baking soda and the gas the beans will give me if i skip that part!!
    I toss in a ham hock for flavor and slow cook that with my beans and the onion and garlic. It's part of my next meal to have with the beans and a tortilla and some rice on the side. So the baking soda removes the gasses from the beans before they are cooked. You can add it to the overnight soak method the same way. Just rinse well and add fresh water and cook until tender.
    I love you apron and purple is my favorite color
    Thank you for reminding me to use the bacon fat while frying them to nake the beans delicious!

    Thank you so much 😊 I absolutely love 💕 your videos!!! I have learned many things from you and I am now making flour tortillas and we love them. I also make lefsa which is a potato tortilla made with cream, cooked and riced potatoes, butter, salt, sugar, and flour. I just got a 10 inch tortilla press and going to try the flour tortillas and see if it works without all the rolling. If they are too thick then I can still roll - I am 72 and my joints aren’t what they used to be. I also thought it would come in handy for the lefsa also and maybe pie crust. I will experiment and see what happens!! God bless you and Ron really appreciate your channel.

    My family has made beans that way forever and before re frying we flash fry "corn" tortillas "sorry Mrs. Rachel" :) but you dip the tortilla in red enchilada sauce lay it on a plate put a scoop of beans on the tortilla add a little or a lot of shredded cheese a little onion and then dip the next tortilla and place it on top of the first and repeat. We called them bean enchiladas. Amazing Thank you for the recipe your cooking is amazing

    Oh my gosh Rachel, those beans look sooooo good! You made me laugh when you said, you didn't say that you were making it fat free or something healthy ! Lol I thought that was so adorable. Sometimes we cook for the enjoyment of flavor and the fat. Comfort food at it's best! That's why we have so many choices for different styles of cooking online. You are Right! We do what we love and prefer! This dish is sensational! I will be attempting it for sure. I can always adjust things to my liking or taste, and I can add a bit at a time. I can always add more if needed.
    Once it's in the pot, you can't remove it. Lol 😁
