Linda's Cowboy Beans
My neighbor Linda made Cowboy Beans in a dutch oven over the fire pit in her backyard, and we ate them as we sat around the fire on hay bales. My daughter never liked pinto beans before, but she loved these and asked me to get the recipe. This couple has a horse trailer and takes the horses with them when they go camping.
1 lb dry pinto beans
6 lb beef rump roast
1 T shortening or oil
1 cup green pepper strips
2 medium onions sliced
2 cups tomato juice
1 8-oz. can tomato sauce
1 ½ cup water
2 T cider vinegar
2 T brown sugar
2 t salt
1 t dry mustard
1 t dry thyme
Wash beans, cover with cold water & let soak overnight. Bring to boil and cook 1 hour, drain. Brown roast in hot oil in large Dutch oven. Add peppers and onions and cook until tender. Add beans and remaining ingredients. Cover and bake in 350 degree oven or over fire for 2 ½ to 3 hours or until beans are tender and meat is done. Makes 8 to 10 servings.
