These are the best beans that I've ever tried. They leave a spicy (but not too much) yet tangy taste on your tongue that is a real crowd pleaser. I only made a couple of small changes to my own batch. I wanted to see if I could give the beans a little kick by substituting the ale for a corona. I also deleted the dry rub seasoning, and doubled up the cajun seasoning instead. Some people might find that a bit harsh, but even my friends who normally don't like hot food found it to be perfect.

I live in the San Francisco area and love it here. I discovered Recipezaar (then Food.com..Genius Kitchen) in 2001 and have been so happy to have my favorite recipes stored safely here. I am mother to 7 and grandmother to 7.
I love to knit, smock, sew, etc., but my favorite hobby of the moment is traditional rug hooking. This is a sample of what I do.? It's called "November".? I dyed most of the wool myself. It is made from wool flannel, cut into strips a little less than 1/4" and then worked into a linen backing. This is my 3rd rug.
