call me a snob but neither :naughty:

I shop @ Waitrose & when it comes to beans only Heinz will do....

There's a skill to baked beans on toast too....

- a tin of decent baked beans
- knob of unsalted butter
- freshly milled black pepper
- tabasco/worcester sauce for preference

skill here is to slowly cook the beans to reduce/simmer the watery sauce down to a nice satisfying thick sauce :thumbsup:

Nice fresh thick granary bread toasted with butter :D

Luuuuuush :D

i recall that whenever my dad had too cook our tea (not that often thankfully..) we always had 'mushy beans' :S as he started cooking the beans the same time as everything else :axe: bless
so i suppose heinz beans are perfect for blokes who cook em for 20 minutes lol

aye - mushy beans are the best.... everything condenses down to a big gloop :D reminds me of school beans :D

nowt worse than crunchy beans.... baked beans are not meant to be al dente...

crunchy baked potatos though :D thats lush :D
