  1. Oh yum!!!!! My grandma used to cook a pot of pinto beans with 2 jalapenos, 4 or 5 garlic cloves and pigs feet, they were awesome. I came across this recipe by accident and I am so glad I did, It was very good. Served it with corn bread. Recipe went into the "keeper" file, will have again and again. Thanks so much for sharing
