How to Make Ranch Beans

  1. In a large Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed pot, brown 1 lb ground beef over medium-high heat, breaking it up with a spoon. Add 1 medium onion, chopped, and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
  2. Drain off any excess grease.
  3. Stir in 1 (15-ounce) can of Ranch-style beans (undrained), 1 (15-ounce) can of kidney beans (drained and rinsed), 1 (15-ounce) can of pinto beans (drained and rinsed), 1 cup beef broth, 1 teaspoon chili powder, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, and 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley (optional).
  4. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat to medium-low. Cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, for 10-15 minutes, or until heated through and flavors have melded.
  5. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. Serve hot, garnished with extra parsley or a dollop of sour cream if desired.
