Alabama Black Eyed Butter Beans

[yankee2bbq]

I was wondering if I could use Alabama black eyed butter beans in place of red kidney beans in chili?

What you boys think?

Yes.

Only thing I see is that mature butter beans will have a starchy/caulky mouth feel where as red beans will cook out smooth. But they will work in a chili I would think...especially if you use small young beans.

Sounds like you might be on to something. I'm excited to see this chili.

At 500 pounds it's gonna take one BIG pot Banjo man

Looking forward to seeing your chili Justin. I love me some good chili. Be sure to post it.

I use pinto beans in most of my bean dishes. Chili, baked beans, cowboy beans etc.

I picked the mature beans.
