    | 1. Cook your Pintos: | 2. Wash beans and remove all gravel and such. | 3. Place beans, water, onions and garlic in pressure cooker. | 4. Add spices. | 5. Close lid and bring to pressure. | 6. Cook on medium heat for 55-65 minutes. Release pressure and test for doneness. Cook an additional 10 minutes, only if needed. Remove the onion and drain the beans, saving ALL of the cooking liquid. | 7. Get down to the tasty business: | 8. Saute the bacon until crispy, remove and devour at will (chef's prerogative!). | 9. Add the onion to the rendered bacon fat and saute until caramelized (about 8 minutes). Add garlic, jalapeno, and Adobo Seco and saute a couple more minutes, adding some oil if necessary. | 10. Put sauteed onion mixture in food processor along with about 2 cups of the cooked beans, puree. | 11. Add the puree to the rest of the beans in the cooking pot- stir to mix. | 12. Add the juice of one lime and season with salt, stir. Taste the beans. (It can take a lot of salt as this makes a large batch of beans.) Adjust salt to taste. If the mixture seems dry, add a bit of the left-over bean water until you reach the desired consistency. | 13. Serve topped with cheese. Lots of cheese. :). | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
