BBQ Black Beans

Looking for a great recipe for the next picnic...or just to enjoy at home. Look no more! This delicious dish is the perfect combination of sweet and heat.

This is an amazingly delicious copy cat recipe of El Pollo Loco's BBQ Black Beans.
Original recipe can be found at https://topsecretrecipes.com/el-pollo-loco-bbq-black-beans-copycat-recipe.html.

Here is my version...

 BBQ Black Beans

2 15-ounce cans black beans (undrained)
2 1/2 cups boiling water
1 tsp Chicken Better Than Bouillon
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
3 tablespoons ketchup
3 tablespoons bacon fat (this is the recipe you have been saving that for!)
1 1/2 tablespoons red wine
1/2 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
2 (or more) tablespoons roasted green chiles, chopped
1/4 teaspoon chipotle powder

In medium sauce pan, dissolve Chicken Better Than Bouillon in boiling water. Add remaining ingredients and combine well.

Cook over medium heat at least an hour - it took ours close to 2 hours to get to the thickness we wanted.

The next time I am going to double the recipe, because they are just that good!
