Thank you Bushie for your famous pinto bean cooking method. For those of you that like pinto beans, by all means, try this. They are wonderful......simple.....but oh, so wonderful. Looks like I'm headed to the store to get a bag of beans, soak them tonight and make Bushie's Beans tomorrow!

What are Bushie's beans ??????????

Ah, grasshopper, one does not give out the famous recipe for Bushie's Beans. It must come from Mr. Rodebush himself. Perhaps he will post it once again. Pick up the white courtesy phone, Bushie!

Geez, what WON'T I do for a pretty woman??

In a former discussion about beans, I mentioned that I loved pinto beans, but only if they are cooked "the right way". Lisa inquired as to what I meant, and this is my original reply. Not really a recipe, but a way of cooking them:

"The "right way" to me is to keep it simple. I cook pintos using only fresh-ground black pepper and a big piece of salt pork (or ham bone if we've recently had a ham), then salt to taste after they've cooked awhile. I cook them for many hours, first covered, then after a few hours I take the lid off. This allows the juice to thicken a little. I don't want them "sludgey", but I don't want the juice thin, either. I add enough liquid (usually just water, but chicken broth doesn't hurt) along the way to keep them from getting gloppy.

The only concession I'll make is that sometimes I'll chop up some fresh (not pickled) jalapenos and cook those in there."

Your recipe sounded good.

Peruvian beans? Never heard of them. I'll look for them.Might be fun to try them.

Hmmm.Peruvian Bean:
maicoba bean = mayocoba bean = Peruvian bean = azufrado bean = Peruano bean = canaria bean = canario bean Substitutes: pinto bean

= farts

Beans, beans the musical fruit............

Well if thats a a recipe for baked beans, you guys have a lot to learn. Thats a recipe for cooking pinto beans................I can't wait until I get to Boston...

No one suggested it was for baked beans. It's just Bushie's Beans. And I can attest to their magnificence.

yes but, your from Ohio.............this recipe needs rough chopped, onion, green peppers, Jalapenos, diced tomatoes, bacon, ( Chewy will like this) cumin, garlic, salt and pepper to taste...

Now that sounds fine, but I'll stick with Bushie's recipe for Bushie's Beans.

Hi Michael, "yah likes them like yah likes them" as long as they are good, anytime you can cook beans from scratch, that's a good thing.................The recipe I put in here is the one we make in our cafe, it's Mexican Rancho beans, my Mexican cooks serve them with all the Mexican meals. Chefbuba started using Peruvian beans, he said they are much better than pinto beans. I haven't tried them yet, they are on the list................

Well, Greymo let the beans out of the bag. I was hoping Bushie would chime in. But, yep, that's the recipe. They are simple but really good. Sometimes I add a little canned chopped tomato.

WOW Michael, so much for the Jerry's Apizza blood brother pack we had. Looks like your getting all Yale on me....................The navy beans I was talking about were for the New England Baked beans. I figure Bushies uses Pinto, you know how Southern folk are.......

C'mon, my wife says it'll have to wait for Bushie and you expect me to cross her?

By the way, while Bushie does live in Central Texas he's from Missouri. No Southern folk, he.

I'll stick with Bushie's beans. (Named after our beloved Roadfooder, Mark Rodebush). They are delicious.

Not to be confused with:

Which aren't too bad!

Surely, Chewey is pulling our legs. No sane person would even think of smoking an already corned beef brisket...

Cheers, John

John, everything is better smoked IMHO, indeed the flavor and tenderness when smoked long enough cannot be matched. At least 90% of the people who have it here mention it's the best Corned Beef they have ever had.

Not navy beans. For the rest I guess it'll have to wait till Bushie decides to part with the secret. I will say that when lleechef makes them they're great.

Michael, I need to make sure my tow girls get to try real Boston Baked beans when we get to Boston. I still remember the crock of bean on the table at picnics. Chewy is a Southern Boy, he doesn't know beans about beans.

lleeChef, Sworn to secrecy in my neck of the woods means, it will cost you........I saw your New England recipe, I guess the crock pot method replaces the old Crock method.............In your recipe did you start with Navy beans ?????????

Re:A new twist for Baked Beans. (Michael Hoffman)

They shouldn't even let you Southern boys call them Baked beans. Everyone knows the real baked beans come from New England....Once you have had a Crock of Boston Baked beans there is no going back, and thats no Crock.................

This Southern New England guy happens to have a bean pot, and a stone-lined hole in the ground out back.
