I make these beans in the Instant Pot about every two weeks. They're great with cheddar cheese and onions sprinkled on top, or simply as a side dish for something else. Enjoy! Link to Recipe: my.whisk.com/r...
I soak them overnight and cook for 30 minutes (then quick release). I also sauté the onion and garlic in the pot in bacon grease before adding the beans and water, and I don't add salt until it's done.
I've kept them in the fridge before for up to 7 days, but usually they're gone before that. Never tried to freeze them as is, but have put them in chili and froze that many times and they were still good as new.😊
I like them softer, so (especially if the beans are old) cook them up to 2 hours longer. Why wait to put in the bacon grease? And why in all that's holy would you remove the onions and garlic?
There is a link to the recipe in the video description. I made these according to the recipe but used 4 cloves of garlic instead of 2. And bought some Slap Ya Mama. Turned out absolutely fantastic!😊
