I made baked beans last weekend to compliment the wonderful baby back ribs I smoked. I have made the same baked bean recipe numerous time before with excellent results. This time however, the beans were very mushy - making for something resembling a paste rather than actual beans. I've always used navy beans, as I did this most recent time.
What could be the cause of these beans going mushy - I cooked them for the same length of time, etc.? Were they maybe old - i.e. not fresh?
Also, is there a better place on this forum to post about this question? I was looking for a "Side Dish" section, but didn't find anywhere that looked better to post.
Thanks!!!
