I'm told your water has a lot to do with beans becoming soft with soaking. I have to use soda to get beans soft.

I tell you what, if I have either I pretty much conflate all night. I think it's what you call "conflatulence."

Van Camps up there game to your satisfaction yet? I found a stone in a can of bush's backed beans. About the size of a dime. Not a fan of Bush's either - cantankerous old fart I am.

If you cook your beans and have a lot of liquid in the pot try this old fashioned tip. Break open 2-3 eggs and add about 1/3rd cup of flour and some salt and pepper to taste. Add more flour a little at a time until you reach the consistency of soft cookie dough. Use a spoon and drop small amounts into the simmering pot. In a couple of minutes you will have some of the best dumplings you ever ate. Where we grew up these were called rivels. I use masa.

Boom! Lots left for tomorrow. I used chili powder, crushed garlic, oregano, cummin, coriander and a big ass jalapeno seeded pulp removed. Might use two next time it was quite tame. Raw onions and corn bread with the big bowl I just scarfed. I will do this again Is cooking the beans in a galvanized feed bucket part of the secret recipe? LOL! Started in the slow cooker and went hunting got back near supper time and there was still cooking to be done and quite a bit of liquid to reduce. So I poured it into a stainless pot and put it on the stove to speed things up. Should have started on high with the slow cooker got it hot then turned it down i guess. Crap... now you tell me... I rinsed out my bucket, started the beans .... then wifey jumped my schit ... I told her Salty at the campfire does it this way..... now I have to sleep on the couch... thanks Salty

OK, gotta spew my opinion. If you enjoyed them Salty, great! But; That's the driest pot of beans I've ever seen, bean soup is usually the goal, or so I thought. That's where the cornbread comes in. And.... for your first time, why 5 or 6 spices. Beans cooked with a cured hock need so little else. That always seemed to be the beauty of them, wonderful down home flavors that don't need to be Mexican, Indian, or Oriental. Just an observation, I see so many supposedly good steaks with stuff poured over them & I wonder what's wrong with the steak. A good one will stand on it's own. Beans with a hock will too. Just another of my a-hole opinions, but knowing what a food taste like is first, adding your preferable spice mix, or not, comes the next time. Those poor beans LOL
