  Beau's notes: 
   
  *  There are no "jalapeno beans;" there are jalapeno peppers and pinto 
  beans.  I have two recipes, both of which are quite tref, but a Catholic 
  should worry?  But if you are hosting a Jewish person, smoked turkey will 
  substitute most agreeably for the chazer called for in either recipe.]
