    Texas beans

    Made a pot of Texas beans using some of Grannies recipe. Used 3 thick cut strips of maple bacon, 1-1/2# navy beans. Soaked them overnight (about 20 hrs.) and followed the science of beans instructions on preparing them. Used 5 cloves garlic, one big onion, 1/2 teaspoon cumin, 1 teaspn black pepper, cayenne,smoked paprika, 1 tablspn smoked sea salt, 2 cans Rotel, 3 bay leaves and about 30-32 oz low sodium chicken broth. I fried the bacon, onions and garlic and added everything to the crock pot. Cooked on high for 6 hrs. They were out of this world good. Ate them with grilled Ukrainian smoked Kolibas from a Ukrainian butcher in NYC. Bought 5# smoked and 3# raw. Froze it all and drove back to Texas. The best I ever had.

          You're welcome. I always used a tested one for a base then alter it to my taste, which is a little hotter.

        One would think that along with such fine write-up of a wonderful cook that one would see some equally wonderful photographs of aforementioned cook.

          I don't have time to take pictures. I cook. If you want a picture of beans find one that you like.

          Ouch mad mike, no offense intended. If you follow this site regularly you'd notice a common theme among many of us for chiding each other, good-naturedly, for not posting pics of their cooks. I humbly withdraw my comments and apologize for offending you.

        Bet if you threw those in the smoker with some hickory or pecan it would add a little to what sounds like an amazing dish.

        No offense taken Captain Mike. I'm just not into taking pictures most of the time.

          I'm a similar kind of guy. Too busy taking in what's happening around me. Which is not to say I don't appreciate it when others share pics.
