Beans

[Jarhead]

I made a great pot of beans this weekend.

Pinto beans, washed, soaked and drained, added onion, diced tomato, sliced jalapeno and spicy sausage with some Memphis Dry Rub while it cooked in the crock pot for 6 hours on 'auto'.

Damn I'm good.

Sounds delicious.

Now time to prepare a pan of cornbread to enjoy with it! (Oh, and lots of butter for the cornbread.)

My dad once told me how to "de-gas" a pot of beans, but I forgot what he said. I probably figured at the time that it would take all the fun out of it.

Anybody ever hear how to do that?

I think you have to drain and refill them twice while they are soaking. (this one i've heard for a long time, the rest of these I read on the internet)

Some say to boil them for 2 minutes then discard the water. Others say a pinch of baking soda added while soaking. I read that pouring Sprite or other carbonated beverages over them will do it.

The beans are coated in a sugary substance we can't digest. Thats what you have to get rid of.. or eat them so much that your body grows accustomed to it.

Use 239 or less beans. One more is too farty.

There's 'Bean-o' that you can sprinkle one or two drops on 'gassy' foods before dining. I bought some to put on my DH's food, and he said 'no, I like my farts.' (But I'M the one who has to endure the pollution!!!)

Does anybody have a good recipe for cornbread? I have only made it from a package and it is always dissapointing and dry.

Mrs. Kad has a good one. She sends Kad to Boston Market to pick it up.

I think theirs is dry too. Maybe I just really don't like cornbread. But I know I would if it were moist. Maybe this is why I like pie rather than cake.

I really like the kind that's made with whole corn in it.

Here is doctor dave's cornbread:

Heat the oven to 450 and put two tablespoons of oil in a 9 inch iron skillet and put it in the oven to heat up.

Beat an egg well and then put a cup of milk and a quarter cup of oil in it and mix it up a little.

In a mixing bowel put in one cup corn meal, one cup flour, one teaspoon baking powder, one half teaspoon salt and one quarter teaspoon baking soda and one tablespoon sugar. Mix it up good and pour in the liquid and mix it up good again.
Take the smokin hot skillet out of the oven and pour in the batter and stick it in the oven.
Reduce the heat to 400 and bake for 25 minutes or so. It should be golden and a toothpick stuck in the middle comes out clean.

Be careful. You can hurt yourself eating lots of cornbread and butter.
