I can always eat a bowl of butter beans cooked with ham hocks, onions, and bell peppers, and corn bread puts it over the top. :wave:

Barney's Beanery and Columbo
Columbo was a dedicated chili-head. He ate chili every day, but he ordered chili WITH beans, and chili WITHOUT beans, on alternate days -- for "variety."
"He liked his chili with salt, a little ketchup, and most importantly, with a huge fistful of saltine crackers crushed into it. He seemed to enjoy the ritual of crushing the crackers and stirring them into the bowl, and he explains: 'Y'see, it's the crackers that make the dish.' "
The diner episodes were based on a famous restaurant in Los Angeles, opened around 1922. Barney's Beanery has expanded to several locations since then. Filming was actually done on set in the studio.

Romano beans from scratch. Soaked overnight, actually longer because they absorbed the water. I had to add some.
Then what I do is put them in a jar in the refrigerator. I only take out enough for one meal at a time.
I make them with sausages. Any kind of sausages. I cook the sausages first. Add onions, broth, and simmer.
Oh and I always use the immersion blender on half of the dish. It just makes for a smoother dish.

Always B&M beans with onions. I doctor them up with bacon,more onions and my hubby likes them loaded with molasses. I did make them from scratch a few times but didn't think it was worth the effort. Growing up it was always Campbell's baked beans straight from the can and my Mom never heated them up. I don't know why. Maybe my Dad preferred them that way. Same thing with stewed tomatoes. Always cold. My hubby thought I was crazy the first time I put them on the table cold.

Give me a big bowl of pinto beans and large piece of cornbread and I'm a happy camper.

We buy mini cans of Bush's Grillin' beans. Regular sized cans are way too much for us, mini cans are perfect.

That's what I do, start with pork and beans and add to it. Always add La. Hot sauce too.

Top 5 Bare Basic Black Bean & Rice Survival Recipes For SHTF
"You probably have a nice stash of rice and beans (if you don’t, you should!), but have you ever thought about serving them day after day?
How would you make the meals creative? What could you do to avoid a bad case of food fatigue, or mutiny?
"The three most stockpiled items are bullets, beans (tied with rice), and bandages. When it comes to the beans most preppers are in for a shock.
"Sure, they may have an ample supply sitting in a closet but they don’t know how cook them day after day to make the most of them.
Rice is rich in starch, and an excellent source of energy. Beans are rich in protein, and contain other minerals. Put the two together and you have a virtual super food with all the essential amino acids and enough calories to keep you moving.
"Eating plain old beans and rice every day is about as fun as chewing on cardboard. Again I ask the preppers out there, How would you make the meals creative? What could you do to avoid a bad case of food fatigue, or flat out mutiny?
You need to collect, print out, and try a list of recipes with your family/group/dog and make a simple cookbook of your favorites. I recommend at least a dozen different recipes, that way you never eat the same thing in one week".

Leather Britches
Does anyone remember leather britches? "In Appalachia the term "Leather Britches" is used to describe string beans strung on strings and hung up on porches to dry." When I left home I took one string of dried green beans my grandfather gave me. Maybe I thought I'd need it for food one day. lol. Kept it for decades, doubt I would throw it away, but can't find it now.
