Recipe - San Fernando Valley Pinquitos

1 pound Pinquito beans (or pinto
beans); soaked overnight
Fresh water or broth; to
cover
2 cup Sliced apples
1 One half cup Tomato juice
One fourth cup Brown sugar
2 Cloves garlic; minced
4 small Onions; cut or sliced up
One half pound Bulk port sausage
1 teaspoon Chili powder; or more
1 teaspoon Salt; or to taste
One half teaspoon Pepper; or to taste

Rinse the beans and cover well with fresh water. Let the beans soak the
overnight. After the beans have soaked, drain and cover well with more
fresh water. Bring the beans to a boil. Cover and simmer for 1 to 2 hours,
or until tender. Drain the beans.

Prepare a combination of all remaining ingredients, being sure to mix
sausage well with the apples, etc. (Do not cook sausage first, says Mrs.
Brown.) Bring to a boil and mix with the drained beans. Allow to simmer for
at least 2 hours.

Cook's Notes: You might want to degrease before serving, if you make it
Mrs. Brown's way...
