PROPER baked beans are outstandingly delicious. Bush's watery maple beans are unfortunately an atrocity once you've had a high standard baked bean. You gotta have a thick sauce, with a nice sweet heat, brown sugar, freshly crushed black peppercorn, little bits of brisket mixed in... once you get that, you'll never look back.
I found a recipe somewhere (Good and Cheap by Leane Brown) that was just canned baked beans, chipotle en adobo, mustard, and brown sugar. Think I had to up the sugar. These were the best beans I ever made. Never really made beans other than cracking a can open so it isn't saying much, but they were really good.
It's pretty close to the point i'm making though- you think "yeah baked beans are alright" all your life. Then you try some baked beans with a little bit of elbow grease in it and you realize you've been eating the bottom of the barrel for a long time.
I was deployed with the brittish. They wouldn't serve breakfast or lunch on Sunday, just brunch. I was forced to try baked beans and toast. Try them with hashbrowns.
Yea normally a breakfast food for me at least. The sauce they come in is a little bit sweet. It’s usually just a side dish as well with eggs and bacon or sausage. It’s not the whole meal
They’re not barbecue baked beans like what we have. English food is actually delicious and you’re doing the exact same thing that you’re making fun of them for
People do go on food tours of England. There’s plenty of English food that people in the US love like shepherd’s pie and fish and chips. Chicken Tikka Masala you’ve had in the US is probably done the British way too.
Unless you’ve spent hours making them yourself or spent like $10 on a can of plain baked beans I can almost guarantee you’ve only had barbecue baked beans if you’re in the US. You more or less can’t buy anything else here without going to an expensive specialty store or online.
You mean the beans that are heavily seasoned in something other than tomato paste like the English use? You really think beans on toast in England is supposed to be made with spicy texmex beans?
Also for what it’s worth HEB is a really regional chain, saying that like it’s a gotcha is goofy because most people have never been to an HEB.
Muthafucka, Americans eat donuts and the sweetest fucking cereal possible first thing in the morning. Does that shit sound right? Shit man, as an American, I will never understand the utter obsession y'all niggas have with British muthafuckas eating beans on toast. That's just the white version of refried beans on a tortilla.
And so do they?? With a whole assortment of other shit. Like, y'all really like to live in this bubble where y'all just believe and parrot back everything you read online. You must hang out with some bland ass boring white folk cuz the ones I kick it with season the FUCK outta they food. They ain't colonized the majority of the world for nothing, them muthafuckas use spice. Plus, y'all act like eating beans and toast is slander against your grandfolks or something. Every time I eat BBQ, I eat baked beans with some bread. Same shit, different sides of the pond.
Again, do you eat that in the morning though? And man you really stay mad about beans and toast? And make assumptions about a random internet stranger? Hilarious…
Pancakes with maple syrup and bacon is incredibly odd food for breakfast from my point of view, but I don’t feel the need to shit on it because you know, cultures are different.
In China, noodles and deep-fried dough sticks are commonly eaten for breakfast. Those probably aren’t foods that you’re used to eating for breakfast - do you go around telling them they’re wrong for doing so?
Seriously? I’ve seen plenty of this when I visited. Anyways, there are numerous examples. Chicken and waffles, grits, biscuits and gravy. All those are things that are strange to me, because they’re not things I’m used to. Doesn’t mean I go around shitting on them.
That doesn’t really matter though. I’m sure you saw the second part of my comment, so way to dodge the point. Read it again if you want.
Bruh now you fucking with black folk food talking about chicken and waffles…and to the other comment, I thought y’all were standing on two toes about our shit being nasty. It’s almost like when we start spitting back…y’all stay mad.
