Directions
1
Heat the olive oil and butter in a Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed pot over medium heat.
2
Add the Street Taco Barbacoa seasoning to the oil and butter.
3
Cook for about 2 minutes, stirring frequently, to bloom the spices.
4
Add the chopped onion and diced jalapeño.
5
Cook, stirring occasionally, until the veggies are cooked down, about 8-10 minutes.
6
Add the rinsed and drained beans to the pot and stir to combine.
7
Add the water and chicken bouillon cube (or use chicken broth instead).

Stir well to dissolve the bouillon.
9
Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat to low.
10
Let simmer uncovered for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
11
Using a potato masher, mash some of the beans directly in the pot to thicken the mixture and create a creamier texture.

Leave some beans whole for texture.
13
Taste and season with salt and pepper as needed.
