MacKenzie Posted June 16, 2017 Report Posted June 16, 2017 (edited) A friend gave me a batch of turtle beans that she grew last year. Added 10 smashed cloves of garlic, 1 large onion quartered with some of the root on all 4 pieces, one orange juiced and the orange shell to beans that were soaked overnight. Put them on the KK to simmer for 8 or more until they were soft. Plated with a salad and garlic bread. When the beans are done throw out the orange peel and the onion chunks.

Aussie Ora Posted June 17, 2017 Report Posted June 17, 2017 Interesting never herd of turtle beans Outback Kamado Bar and Grill
CeramicChef Posted June 17, 2017 Report Posted June 17, 2017 @MacKenzie - those are some kind of good looking beans. Like @Aussie Ora, I've never heard of turtle beans. Down here in these parts we call those black beans. No matter, they are delicious, especially with some ham hock and jalapeño. I wish I had a big bowl of those turtle beams right now. Kudos! 1
Shuley Posted June 17, 2017 Report Posted June 17, 2017 I have never heard of them either. But they look delicious 1
Bruce Pearson Posted June 17, 2017 Report Posted June 17, 2017 As usual Mac does it again, yum they look pretty tasty. What kind of taste does garlic, orange, and onion give them? 1
MacKenzie Posted June 17, 2017 Author Report Posted June 17, 2017 (edited) Bruce you might think all that garlic would over power things but not so, it was nice and mellow with Just a hint of orange. One thing I like is that this recipe has no added sugar of any kind and most beans seem to have tons of sugar in one form or another. Edited June 17, 2017 by MacKenzie
