Instructions
-
In a large bowl, soak the beans in plenty of water for at least 6 hours, or up to overnight.
-
Drain the beans and set them aside. In a large pot over medium heat, add the olive oil, onion, and garlic then sauté for a few minutes, until the onion is just softened.
-
Add the soaked beans and water, stir, and bring the beans to a simmer. Simmer until the beans are cooked through for about 45 minutes to 75 minutes.
-
Add the beer, chipotle, and cinnamon then simmer until much of the liquid is absorbed, around 20 minutes. If necessary, add some water to keep the beans from drying out.
-
Add salt to taste, and cook for another 10 minutes. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F and set the beans aside.
-
Grease a large baking dish or cast-iron skillet. Cut a slit down the length of each poblano. Use your fingers and a paring knife to remove and then discard the membranes and seeds from each pepper.
-
In a bowl, mix together the shredded Jack and crumbled cotija/feta cheese with the lime juice.
-
Mix the chopped tomatoes into the beans. Use a spoon to fill most of each pepper with beans, then stuff a handful of cheese inside.
-
Brush the outside of each pepper with olive oil and bake for around 25 minutes, until the tops are roasted and golden and the pepper is tender all around.
-
Serve peppers immediately, with the slit side up and garnished with cilantro.
