1 tablespoon dried crushed red chile; seeds included
2 cup black beans; sorted and
2 tablespoon bacon fat or vegetable oil
2 medium onions; chopped
40 ml garlic; minced
1 large ham hock

1 teaspoon ground epazote (optional)
1 teaspoon ground coriander

Cooking Directions:
Cover the beans with water and soak overnight, or quick soak them.
Saute the onion and garlic in the bacon fat until soft.
Combine all the ingredients, except the tequila and sour cream, in a large pot and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for 2-3 hours or until the beans are soft.
Remove the ham hock and shred the meat.

Remove from the heat, stir in the tequila, garnish with the sour cream, and serve.
