Right, continuing the recent trend for pointless inane threads, here's my entry for this years most inane thread competition..:p

How do you prefer your baked beans?

I prefer mine "Transport Caff" style. Like they've been bubbling away in a great big steel pot for hours. The sauce has gone really thick, and the beans have started to break down and be absorbed into the sauce. It takes me back to trips up the M6 to Scotland with my old man and his fishing club mates. Regular stop at Tebay Truck Stop(before it became a proper Motorway Services).

My Missus prefers them just heated up, still very runny. I just can't face them like that...:D

Don't care as long as they are Heinz. we have tried every other brand shaving the shopping budget as you do (with the lower brand challenge) and the one thing we can not skimp on, is Heinz beans.

Interesting thing the lower brand challenge, we tried it with loads of stuff and saved a shedload on our shopping budget! we now buy tesco value tea bags for 27p for 80x and the mrs can not tell the difference with them and PG tips.
 
Arguably one of the most important topics ever to be posted on here....:clap:

I cannot state how crucial for me that these little suckers get a good amount of time on the stove in a pan with a small knob of butter stirred well with a thin wooden spoon. Creamy, smooth and well mixed for me and must be hot. Luxury is when you add some grated cheese, a splash of Tabasco and lots of black pepper. Heavenly over a oven baked spud or over two warm pieces of toast and marmite. : Heinz.. there is no substitute! :thup:

Im hungry now! the butter and black pepper on the hob is a proper treat! usually just nuke them, but i do love the luxury way!
 
Dash of tabasco, worcester sauce, cayenne pepper, regular pepper and you're good to go.

More importantly brown sauce or not?

If you're a bloke the answer should be yes :thup:
 
Your'e right, brown sauce is a must ...... but is it going to be Daddies or HP !! ??? Another budget cutting corner I cannot make I'm afraid....:cool:

Without beans ....

Seriously
Make beans on toast, scrape off beans and leave the sauce on the toast

LOL when i was a kid, one of my mates used to order a pizza with every topping available, only for it to be delivered to the table for them to scrape it all off and just eat the dough. they said they liked all the flavours, just none of the actual toppings! mental!!
 
Hot n runny. On well done, crunchy toast. Layers of HP brown sauce. An excellent 'meal' before a round of golf.

Daddies is almost as wrong as ketchup is on a bacon butty.

is the correct answer :whoo: :thup:


..just to add to the experience, BB aficionados will know that if you open the end that has been in contact with the shelf i.e turn the tin upside down before opening and you get the best taste :clap:
