Hi guys. I have tried several recipes for smoked baked beans and they are all fantastic. People always eat all I bring. I am not looking for a recipe as I have currently been using Kerris bean recipe from these forums with a couple tweaks. But I have been itching to try something different to this recipe and wanted some opinions. First off when it comes to baked beans, of the 3 fruits, does pineapple, apple, or peach tend to compliment the beans better than the rest or is it always a personal opinion? I mean if you made 3 batches of beans with the exact same recipe except using different fruits in each pot, would one win hands down more often than the others in a taste test?
Another question i got is how much flavor does a little bourbon add to a batch of beans? The recipe I have been using does not use bourbon so if I added some what would I notice different? Be gentle here as I drink beer and am not a whiskey drinker. To me that crap tastes like gasoline. :tongue: But in a pot of beans it may or may not add something special?? Would it be enough of a difference that side by side you would taste the difference? How much bourbon do most people add when they do use it? 1/3 cup? 1 cup?
Again guys don't need recipes just want some facts about beans to help me try to add a little different variety to what i have been making.
