cowdery Posted May 10, 2008 Share Posted May 10, 2008 Bush's has a new line called Grillin' Beans. Naturally, I tried the Bourbon and Brown Sugar variety. Next time, I think I'll just pour some bourbon into their regular pork-n-beans, but it was worth a try. The ad promised "robust beans with just a touch of natural bourbon flavor." The last ingredient on the ingredients list: "natural bourbon flavor." The label also helpfully pointed out that the product contains no alcohol.

ratcheer Posted May 11, 2008 Share Posted May 11, 2008 I haven't seen those particular ones, but Bush's makes many varieties of what used to be just plain old baked beans. Most of them that I have tried have been excellent.Tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kendall Posted May 11, 2008 Share Posted May 11, 2008 Mr.C,In response to your post, I purchased a can last night, I have not tried them yet. I also noticed the label stated "natural bourbon flavor" and "this product is non-alcoholic". I wondered what "natural bourbon flavor'"meant? I take it you were not impressed with them?

cowdery Posted May 12, 2008 Author Share Posted May 12, 2008 They're fine, but they're basically just another flavor of standard baked beans, a minor variation. I was hoping for something more. Liked them better after a shot of VOB BIB. Put some in the beans too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jburlowski Posted May 12, 2008 Share Posted May 12, 2008 All this is making me think of a great vatting... combine with my "exploding bourbon chicken". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishnbowljoe Posted May 14, 2008 Share Posted May 14, 2008 My wife bought some of them too. There are a couple of varieties that are a lot better than the bourbon ones. Joe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishnbowljoe Posted June 22, 2008 Share Posted June 22, 2008 We've had grillin' beans a few times. My wife and I have found out the best is a mixture of the bourbon and smokehouse varieties. We're having a family cookout today and this mixture will be served.:yum: Joe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
