  3. Add the chopped onion, stir well and often with the bacon until the onions begin to cook and deepen in color, about 6 minutes.
  4. Add the garlic and green chili, stir constantly so the garlic doesn't burn, but does brown and everything becomes aromatic,
  5. Add the canned tomatoes with juices
  6. Add the beans and liquid, half of the chopped cilantro, Barrelhouse Blend, and bay leaf (s).
  7. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally.
