What to do with two massive tins of baked beans?

[Doodler]

The Doodler household has been given the gift of two massive tins of baked beans. Each holds 2.6kg of beans.

There are three people living here. What can we cook that will use up the beans quickly but not be too monotonous or sickly to eat?

They won't even fit in the food cupboard they're that big.

franks and beans.

Can we have a picture of the tins next to one of your body parts for scale please?

 

[gentlegreen]

decant.

 

[Sprocket.]

decant.

Not a nice thing to say about someone giving Doodler such a thoughtful and useful gift!

 

[Epona]

I'd be inclined to (once a tin is open) bag them up and freeze them in useable portions

Yes a pic is in order. Maybe not involving body parts.

Heat one of them up on a gas burner and film it.

I hadn't thought of freezing the beans.

Have a bath with them for charity
Or do a splosh vid for kinky folk

Pit beans
4 x 415 g cans of baked beans
1/3 cup BBQ Sauce
1 small onion
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp garam masala (see recipe below)
1 tsp Ancho chilli powder
1/3 cup dark brown sugar
1/2 tsp Hickory liquid smoke (optional)
1 Tbsp vegetable oil

Cook off the onions, then add everything else and cook it all. Bacon/lardons optional.

If only we had a few more monster tins we could think up some Guinness Book of Records stunt.

You'll also need a lot of cheese.

Splosh mag once had a feature titled 'Nicked and held in police custardy'.

No worries, it is.

In an ideal world you'd do it on a BBQ/smoker but we don't live in an ideal world so the liquid smoke is a necessary evil. It's literally water with smoke in it so no weirdness, use very sparingly!

Put a cushion on top and use as garden furniture.

 

[beesonthewhatnow]

Put a large amount of cheese on top of them.

Like the miniature Coke can trick, but in reverse?

Give 'em away to a soup kitchen that could use them.

Look up baked bean recipes, get cooking, hope you have a BIG freezer.

Spitfire's recipe has the best bean to all other ingredients ratio of any recipe I've yet found.

Stick 'em up your bum.

Stick 'em up your bum.

They'd better up yours where they could form a balanced meal with all the different veg you've been sticking up your bum

My main suggestion would be to freeze a few portions once the tin has been opened.

A mate of mine used to use baked beans in a Chilli receipe instead of the proper ones ... or mixed with mushy peas !

Someone else I know would add a few baked beans to meat and potato pies, flans (quiches), corned beef hash and the like.
Usually the ones left over from breakfast, or beans on toast type meals ...

Home made "all day" breakfast ...

Put them in a blender and make a smoothie. I’m sure that’s a thing. bean smoothie yes.

Beans+beans apparently have a positive affect on the cardiac muscle. A direct link has been drawn vis a vis increasing amounts of pulses consumed concurrent with rising emission of waste gas from the anus.

Donate them to a soup kitchen and spend less than a quid on three tins of Tesco value ones for your own home, no what to do dilemma plus the feel good factor of not wasting food and helping someone less fortunate? Just a thought
