Overview

Pinto beans are a popular, speckled heirloom variety known for their creamy texture and mild flavor, making them ideal for soups, stews, and refried beans. Beans are a staple food in many cultures and can be enjoyed at the dry, mature stage. Pinto beans are easy to grow, drought-tolerant, and highly productive. They are rich in protein, complex carbohydrates, folate, iron, and soluble fiber. Additionally, their ability to form a symbiotic relationship with Rhizobium bacteria helps improve soil fertility by fixing nitrogen.

Pinto beans typically grow as bush beans, which are low-growing, compact plants reaching 1–2 feet tall and do not need support. Though less common, some pole varieties exist, which require trellising or support structures.

Conditions

Pinto beans are a frost-sensitive, warm-season crop that grows best in well-drained, loamy soil with a pH between 5.8 and 6.5. They thrive in full sun, needing at least 6 hours of direct sunlight each day. For the best results, prepare the soil by amending it with compost, phosphorus, and potassium.

Planting

Plant pinto beans directly in the garden once the soil is warm (above 60°F). Sow the seeds 1 inch deep, spaced 4 to 6 inches apart in rows. Water well when planting, but avoid overwatering to prevent seed rot. After seedlings emerge in 7 to 14 days, keep the soil moderately moist, allowing it to dry slightly between waterings. Bush types don’t need support, but if growing pole varieties, set up trellises shortly after planting.

Care

If pinto beans are new to your garden, inoculating the seeds with Rhizobium bacteria can help the plants fix nitrogen and improve yields. Water consistently but avoid overwatering, allowing the soil to dry slightly between waterings.

Pests and Diseases

To prevent seed rot and damping-off disease, avoid planting in cool, damp soil. White mold can be minimized by rotating crops and watering early in the day so foliage dries quickly. To manage bacterial blights, practice crop rotation and compost old plant debris. Encourage beneficial insects by planting cilantro or other umbel flowers nearby. For severe infestations, use organic solutions such as insecticidal soap or diatomaceous earth, which is safe for humans and effective against a wide range of pests.

Harvest

For dry beans, let the pods dry on the plant until they are brittle and the seeds rattle inside. Harvest frequently if picking beans at the green shell stage to encourage continued production.

Solid jerky
Flavor Name: Variety, Size: 2 Ounce (Pack of 5)
These have a great flavor! I love the thin slices and the simple ingredient list. Some of the pieces were a bit too grizzly for me though and hurts the overall taste consistency for me as I don’t like the taste of those fattier pieces. Overall I would buy again.

Terrible Tasting Biltong
Flavor Name: Variety, Size: 2 Ounce (Pack of 5)
Small bits and shreds of meat including whole chunks of soft fat. Thick oily coating on most of the pieces. Tastes like cheap grocery store jerky. I will not buy this again. Tastes nothing like the excellent quality Kalahari brand of biltong that I have previously tried.

Too Stringy
Flavor Name: Variety, Size: 2 Ounce (Pack of 5)
Flavor is good but the meat is too stringy. Unless you enjoy endless chewing, I recommend trying another product.

The closest I've been to an actual African journey.
Flavor Name: Variety, Size: 2 Ounce (Pack of 5)
I've always wanted to trek to the high seas and down the Ivory Coast, making my way to South Africa. Alas, I have yet to have the chance. But with Brooklyn Biltong, I felt like I was part of that great adventure. From the moment the package arrived in the mail, I was excited to dive in. The three different colors of the packages was really enticing. Which flavor first - red, yellow, or blue!? I went with the original flavor first (red) to get a real sense of the product. As I opened up the package I was overwhelmed with the smells of air dried goodness, with a hint of coriander. With just enough bite, I went into paleo heaven. As a gym and health nut, this was the perfect treat after I blasted off reps of 350lbs. It gave me the energy I needed to really make my way through the day before hitting the club later than night with my bros. But how can we forget about the other flavors? Jo'burg steakhouse? O.M.G. I legit thought I was hanging with the late great Charlie Palmer nibbling down on some garlicy cow goodness. The Peri Peri BROUGHT. DA. HEAT. I felt like I was on trial with all that SPICE. This is the real deal. You don't need to go to Brooklyn to wear skinny jeans and you don't need to hop on a plane to South Africa to get the whole experience. Worth. Every. Bit. Of. My. Hard. Earned. Cash. DO IT.

So Delicious… but expensive!
Flavor Name: Variety, Size: 2 Ounce (Pack of 5)
Wow this stuff is delicious! I was prepared to be underwhelmed and I was so pleasantly surprised because it was so good. My favorite is the Peri Peri flavor, but they are all good. The price is so expensive, but since I’m restricting sugar right now, it was a thoughtful healthy splurge. Highly recommend for quality, flavor, and texture. But I might have to start a beef jerky savings fund to be able to afford to order more.
