These are just the BEST! Cooked them today, and the flavors just melded....cooking the bacon, onion, then adding the cilantro is the "ticket", not even to mention the whole jalapeno cooked on top of the beans. It reminded me of cooking peas with the okra on top. Jalapeno pepper temp was "just right". Thanks for this!!

This recipe is "PERFECT"....we all loved it, and when I RATED it, I couldn't control the computer mouse :) it ran away with the cheese,slid over and stopped on the "very good, will make it again" FORK and voted. I wanted to give it the "PERFECT" rating.....oh well, if you make "Wifes Beans" you will know first hand that they are PERFECT!!!!! I will try to control my computer mouse from now on. :)
