Prep time: 15 min
Cook time: 45 min
Total time: 1 h
Yield: 6 servings
Cuisine: Southern
Ingredients: 1 lb ground beef; 1 small onion, diced; 2 cloves garlic, minced; 1 can (15 oz) kidney beans, drained and rinsed; 1 can (15 oz) pinto beans, drained and rinsed; 1 can (15 oz) black beans, drained and rinsed; 1 can (15 oz) diced tomatoes; 1/2 cup ketchup; 1/4 cup brown sugar; 2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce; 1 tbsp mustard; 1 tsp chili powder; Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned, breaking it up with a spoon as it cooks.
Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the skillet with the beef and sauté for a few minutes until the onion is soft and translucent.
In a large pot or Dutch oven, combine the cooked beef mixture, kidney beans, pinto beans, black beans, diced tomatoes, ketchup, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, chili powder, salt, and pepper.
Stir everything together until well combined. Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat.
Reduce the heat to low and let the Cowboy Beans simmer for about 30 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
Taste and adjust the seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed.
Once the beans are thick and flavorful, remove the pot from the heat and let it sit for a few minutes before serving.
Serve the Cowboy Beans hot, garnished with sliced green onions or a dollop of sour cream, alongside cornbread or fluffy rice for a complete meal.
