Directions
In a large pot, put the beans, bacon, oregano and cumin.
Add the beer, and water.
Simmer until the beans are almost tender (maybe 1 to 1½ hours).
Add the tomatoes and jalapenos, and cook until beans are fully tender.
Add the cilantro, and re-heat for about a half hour.
Salt to taste.
These make a good basic bean.
If you want a bean soup, remove about a quarter of the beans, and mash with a potato masher.
Return to the pot.
