Serves 4-6.  This is a great side dish for barbequed chicken, ribs or burgers.

Ingredients:

• 6 Strips Bacon, sliced into ½” pieces
• ¼ Large Onion, diced into ¼” pieces
• ½ Tsp. Cumin Seeds
• 1 Garlic Clove, finely minced
• 2 15 Ounce Cans Beans, drained and rinsed (I like black and pinto beans)
• 1/3 Cup Santa Fe Ole's Red Chile Sauce
• 4 Tsp. Santa Fe Ole's Red Chile Honey
• 1/3 Cup Water or Broth
• 2 Pinches Dried Oregano Leaves
• 1 Bay Leaf
• Salt to taste

Preparation:

• In a medium sauce pan over medium heat, sauté the bacon until the bacon has rendered most of the fat.
• Add the onion and sauté until it is transparent.
• Drain most of the fat; stir in the cumin seeds and garlic and sauté, stirring for about 30 seconds or until fragrant.
• Add the remaining ingredients and stir to incorporate.
• Bring to a low simmer, cover and cook for about 15 minutes.
