For a richer flavor, consider using smoked ham or adding a splash of beer during the simmering process. Adjust the amount of hot sauce to suit your preferred level of spice. Serve these cowboy beans with warm tortillas, crusty bread, or a sprinkle of crumbled cornbread for a truly comforting experience. Leftovers taste even better the next day, as the flavors continue to meld and deepen.
