PUEBLO PINTO BEANS 
1 lb. dried pinto beans, washed and picked over 
6 cups cold water 
1/4 lb. salt pork, cut in 1/4 inch cubes 
1/8 teaspoon pepper 

The night before, place pinto beans in large pot or bowl 
  and add the 6 cups cold water. 
In the morning, drain beans and place in large heavy pot 
  and add just enough cold water 
to cover them. Bring to boiling and turn down to simmer. 
Add salt pork and pepper. 
Simmer for 6-7 hous until beans are tender and liquid is about the 
consistency of cream soup. Stir occasionally and don't let boil dry. 
Salt to taste. 

HOW TO EAT: 
Ladle beans into a large shallow bowl or onto a plate. Spoon 
chili over the top like gravy. Eat with frybread or tortillas, 
depending on your cholesterol level.
