This is a easy black bean soup with the smoky flavor and kick of chipotle peppers. Resist the urge to add any salt as the bacon and canned beans already bring enough salt to the soup the balance the dish perfectly. I used bacon ends for this recipe because they are cheap. If you can't find them, choice bacon is fine to use. Serve hot with a dollop of sour cream and Tostones (Fried Plantains).

My mother-in law made these often when I lived in Miami before her death. After reading other recipes, I found they all missed one very important ingredient for authenticity-PORK! This recipe takes a while to cook, and I have also used a crock pot with good results for those who enjoy using them. Hope you enjoy!
