Cooking the dish according to the recipe:


  1. Pat the meat dry with paper towels and season with salt and pepper. Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a Dutch oven or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Fry the meat in small batches until golden brown, adding more oil as needed. Transfer the meat to a plate.
  2. Leave only 2 tablespoons of oil in the cauldron. Fry the onion over medium heat for 10 minutes, scraping up any browned bits of meat from the bottom of the cauldron with a wooden spoon. Add the garlic and continue cooking for another two minutes. Stir in the chili powder, cumin, and oregano and sauté for another two minutes.

    Add 5 cups of broth and stir. Add the meat along with its juices. Bring to a gentle simmer. Season with salt and pepper to taste and let the meat simmer, covered, for about 3 hours.

  3. In a blender, combine half the beans and the remaining broth. Add the mixture to the pot along with the whole beans. Let it simmer for 1 hour or more, until the beans are tender. Season with salt and pepper to taste and serve with rice as a side dish. Garnish with sour cream, chopped cilantro, grated cheddar, and chopped fresh or pickled jalapeños.
