Step 1

Pour Canned Pinto Beans (3 cups) out onto a flat surface, and sort through, removing rocks and irregular beans.

Step 2

Put pinto beans into a large saucepan, and wash with cold water. Swirl beans in water with your hands, and remove any beans that float. Drain and refill with water to a volume double that of the beans.

Step 3

Place pot on stovetop, and cover. Bring to a boil over high heat. Turn down heat, and boil for 2 hours. Check periodically, and add water if necessary.

Step 4

Taste beans, and add Sea Salt (1 Tbsp) and Garlic Powder (1/2 Tbsp) as needed. Stir until combined. Add Corn Oil (1/4 cup) and mix. Let simmer, uncovered, for 1 and a half hours, stirring occasionally.

Step 5

Turn off heat, and mash beans using a potato masher to desired consistency.

Step 6

Serve and top with your choice of Shredded Cheese (to taste) and enjoy!
