1 lb dreid pinto peans, picked over and rinsed

1/2 cup diced yellow onion

1/2 cup bean seasoning (recipe following)

8 cups water, plus more if needed

1 cup chopped brisket bark and 1 inch meat chunks

For the Bean Seasoning:

1 cup chile powder

1/2 cup kosher salt

1/4 cup coarse black pepper

2 tbsp onion powder 2

2 tbsp garlic powder

1 tsp ground cumin

Directions

For the Bean Seasoning:

Combine all of the ingredients and mix well. Store in an airtight container

For the Beans:

Combine the beans, onion, bean seasoning, and water in a large pot and let soak for 4 to 6 hours or for up to overnight, which is actually what I do.

Add the brisket bark and the meat to the soaked beans and bring to a boil. Lower the heat to a slow simmer, cover, and cook for 3 to 4 hours until the beans are tender.
