  • Ranch-style beans are a Tex-Mex side dish made with pinto beans, tomatoes, onions, garlic, spices, and smoky barbecue burnt ends.

Ranch-style beans, a beloved Texan dish, are characterized by their rich, spicy flavor profile, featuring ingredients like onion, garlic, and chiles. Originating from canned versions popularized by brands like Gebhardt and Old El Paso, these beans have become a staple in Tex-Mex cuisine, often used in dishes like chili and huevos rancheros.
