You can also use your Instant Pot to do a "presoak" cook, and frankly to cook them too! See instructions at the bottom of the recipe. If you prefer less heat - because the Rotel tomatoes definitely give this dish a spicy zing - just replace the Rotel with a can of regular diced tomatoes instead. Now, I can't say that this recipe is anything like the canned ranch beans but what I can say is that this is a delicious and hardy bean meal, with a slight southwestern twist, and it is also easy on the pocketbook. Nowadays, I guess to be more appropriate and politically correct, it now says "Appetite Pleasin'." Well I rather like the husband pleasin' and I can guarantee you that The Cajun loves 'em, so that's what I called 'em! In fact, ConAngra Foods claims to trace the origins of its Ranch Style brand of beans all the way back to 1872, though they were not introduced though mass marketing to the general public until 1934.
Well, thankfully, I think the presoak and changing of the water may well help to tone that down, but the reason I called them husband pleasin' beans has nothing to do with that! It is because of a brand of beans called "Ranch Style Beans" made by ConAgra Foods who, a few years back, used to actually have "Husband Pleasin'" on their labels.
#RANCH STYLE BEANS MOVIE#
When I think of these beans I can't help but to think about that scene around the campfire in the movie Blazing Saddles! You know the one. Ranch Style Cowboy Beans Ranch beans have been around a very long time, in fact, I'm pretty sure that some form of them probably date all the way back to pioneer days and wagon trains, and in this version they are very often referred to as Chuck Wagon or Cowboy Beans. I'm ready to get motivated about gardening, traveling, and cooking again! They all go hand in hand, in my opinion.Ranch-Style Beans, known also as Chuck Wagon and Cowboy Beans, are made with pintos and slow stewed with southwestern flavor. Just stating facts.Ĭo-workers and neighbors who always seem to cook too much keep me supplied with their leftovers, which is fantastic for me (I just heat them up when I get hungry), but I've really started missing cooking. Sorry if it sounds like I'm whining I'm not. Cooking an actual meal is great on occasion, until the fourth day of leftovers (the first three days are usually great! But even good food gets tiresome if eaten repeatedly for days.). I hate seeing food go to waste, and a lot of times the fresh fruits and vegetables and bread I buy end up in the trash after turning bad, so I've basically quit grocery shopping except for necessities (for me, that means canned goods and microwaveable stuff I know, not the healthiest). I've never been married and don't have kids, so it's just not worth the effort most of the time. I LOVE food but don't eat often and rarely cook anymore.
