Food & wine. April 2007. I will use canned beans when i make this.

Steps


Prepare the beans: in a large saucepan , cover the beans with 2 inches of water and bring to a boil.
Simmer over low heat for 1 hour , stirring occasionally.
In a medium skillet , heat the vegetable oil.
Add the onion , garlic and jalapeo and cook over moderate heat until softened , about 7 minutes.
Add to the beans , along with the tomato , oregano and enough water to cover.
Season with salt and pepper and simmer until the beans are tender , about 2 hours longer , replenishing the water if necessary.
Meanwhile , cook the pork: preheat the oven to 300.
In a small enameled cast-iron casserole , combine the broth with the garlic , onion , habanero and serrano chiles , bay leaf , cumin and teaspoon each of salt and pepper and bring to a simmer.
Season the pork loin with salt and pepper and add it to the casserole.
Cover with foil and bake for about 1 hour , turning the pork once , until tender.
Transfer the pork to a plate and cover with plastic wrap until cool enough to handl.
