Bad news for you OP.
The market sold you last year's beans. Once they dry out too much no amount of boiling will ever cook them.
Unless you are at high altitude. Then it just takes forever.

>>5310756
Nah I cooked them a few weeks ago for something else in just water, didn't take nearly as long. I'm assuming it's just cooking them in what is basically a barbecue sauce that is making them take this long.

Shouldn't season have seasoned them before boiling, the salt seems to keep them from getting soft. You could try adding a bit of baking soda, the alkalinity helps break down cell walls.

>>5310738
doesn't the acidity in the tomatoes retard the cooking process?

>>5310765
I boiled them in plain water for 2 hours before I put other stuff in them.

>>5310767
This is helpful, if this is true, then here lies the problem.

>>5310767
aye who u callin a retard fuck u nigga

>>5310765
Added some baking soda, thanks for the tip man. For some reason i never came across this in any recipes for BBQ baked beans.

lol I made that jewgirl pick years ago :3

>>5310782
Glad some people are still here from the old days. Does this pic remind you of anything?

this isn't true. salt doesn't have that effect. season the soaking water and then again when you cook them. makes mo better beans. i usually add baking soda though, and never have problems with getting stiffed by stiff beans

>>5310809

>>5310919

There used to be a guy that cooked for /ck/ on Youtube. No, I'm not talking about Borneo.

>>5310782

Beans are still going, a bit softer with the baking soda added but still not there.

Dude that's freaking Mary Louise Carpenter.
She is bullet proof for her age.

I can understand making pasta sauce starting from fresh tomatoes instead of canned tomatoes but I don't understand why anyone bothers getting dehydrated beans instead of canned.

>>5310966
Superior flavor/texture, also a lot cheaper.

>>5310966
Cheap, better texture
Longer prep time but next to no additional effort

>>5310949
...Are you sure those are beans and not diamonds?

>>5310978
Yeah, they're getting close. Just about there. The baking soda really helped. It's like they didn't break down hardly at all after the tomatoes were added.

>>5310971
>>5310975
Alright then, I thought the flavour texture would be negligible.
Might just go ahead and see how big a difference it makes in my awesome bean chili.

>>5310997
Yeah just cook the beans to proper softness before you add anything else, as experienced by myself, the OP.

>>5311002
No buying old beans seems like the golden rule.

>>5311003
I cooked with these just fine 2 weeks ago.

>>5310738
Buy a pressure cooker, it reduces the time needed to cook anything tremendously, 90% reductions in some cases. More energy efficient as well.

Crockpot. Simple.

anddd they are done. Fucking finally. Cooked so long that they now taste more like baked beans versus barbecue beans - quite dark in flavor. It's fine, they taste great. Just 5 hours too late for fucking pulled pork, which came out great after 12 hours of smoking over some hickory.

>>5311057
I cook my beans in a crockpot. no prewash required. they're done in 6-7 hrs on high.

>>5310949
yeah, you really got to add it at the beginning to get the full effect

>>5310966
they actually have flavor if you cook them yourself

>>5311088
long as they're not red beans you should be fine just using a slow cooker

>>5310782
Who is she??

>>5310907
You forgot lederp. She was a real sweetheart.

>>5312268

Yeah but she was like 15 and that's illegal.

Also there's that bean goop from the cans, so it takes time to rinse that shit off.

>>5310738
Add a bit of epizote and head down to FLAVORTOWN!

Whatever happened to liru?

I want to know what happened to Kona Kalani, she did a vanishing act. I hope that she's OK. She's a cute cutie from Hawaii, USA.
