hi, i've read some threads about making beans, many of which are about doctoring up canned beens. i'm interested in making bbq beans through a pack of say dried navy beans. my weber bullet will be on order soon, so i've never bbqed before.
seems like the consensus is the soak the beans overnight, perhaps in some salted water, okay... now we move to the day of cooking.
Say i like to bbq a pork shoulder. Say I start the operation around 8PM (meaning around 7:30pm I had already started the fire and stabilized in the weber).
So from 8PM to 8AM the next day is 12 hrs... I'm going low and slow set it and forget it style.
Could I put the beans that had soaked the night before, into the weber at 8pm, the same time as the pork shoulder?
I've read that beans take 6-8hrs... but surely can stay for 12hrs I presume? Can beans be set and forgotten as well is the other question of course?
concerns I have would be the liquid in the bean pot drying out, and that this bean pot would not be stirred overnight by anyone.
The other issue is the incorporation of burnt ends... which would not be doable until 8-9am... i would imagine the burnt ends would have to simmer w/ the beans for at least 1hr. this would mean 13hr beans... would that work?
