Don't have black beans but it was ok ! Next time I will reduce cider vinegar. It was too much for us !

One of my favorite recipes as of late. I tried a bunch of different beans and rice recipes but keep coming back to this one. The only addition I make is to add some chopped chipotles in adobo sauce. It adds a smokiness that really hits well in this recipe.
