Pinto beans with pork over cornbread

My mom was from Alabama and she used to make this all the time. It was one of her southern recipes. I like to makes it with fried potatoes and onions too.
Cooking Instructions
- 1
In 3-4 cups of water boil pork, onion, garlic and carrots until all is tender.
- 2
While that's boiling you can quick soak your beans according to package directions. Also make your cornbread according to package directions.
- 3
After an hour of the pork mixture boiling and the beans soaking, you can add them all to the same pan and continue boiling. For another hour to an hour and a half. You can taste test and stop when you like. But during that time add the minced onion, garlic powder, celery salt and bacon bits.

Crumble cornbread onto dish and cover with beans. Make sure to get some of the juice too. There's a lot of flavor in it.

Carnitas Cornbread Carnitas Cornbread
This is basically Mexican cornbread using carnitas meat instead of hamburger. Making the carnitas is the only somewhat time-consuming step, which I usually do the day before because I'm old and get tired quicker. But it's really worth the effort and time because this cooking method imparts incredible flavor and tenderness to the pork. If you're questioning the use of lard, or wanting to substitute a different fat (like shortening), do a quick internet search and you'll learn that lard is a lot healthier than previously thought. Use lard.If you don't have picky eaters like I do, you can add some of the garnishes to the cornbread casserole before baking, like the salsa, jalapeños, black olives. Maggie Conlon -

Mexican Cornbread Mexican Cornbread
This recipe makes a really good, dense, rich cornbread with loads of flavor. We serve this with soups, bean dishes, or with just about anything really. There's never leftovers at our house.NOTES:Milk can be substituted for the buttermilk if needed, but the flavor will be lighter. Also milk is thinner than buttermilk so you'll need less of it. Leave out a few tablespoons and adjust after it all comes together. Also omit the baking soda since you've removed the acid buttermilk brings to the party.I cook mine in cast iron and its great that way because of the fantastic crust that develops. You could probably cook this in pyrex but it won't be as good :) Mark Dickinson -
