never thought I'd ever hear Carla say Bussin' ahaha ah. my whole year has been made

[@nandezjl0211]

And it was the way she said it like "yeah, I said it..." Lol

[@davidmccormack7122]

Another great recipe from the Princess of Pulses, The Queen of Bean. Your "Carla Makes Beans" video changed my life, never have beans been soo nice.

The end piece is the chefs treat. If you cook it you get to eat it - that's the rules.

[@sithyq3480]

I got my copy of TSSG for Christmas. After the lime pickle sweet potatoes, I'm making this recipe for new years! It's such a great cookbook!

[@Theonetheonlysteven]

Is it just me?!…. Carla’s chopping board from different camera angles looks like completely different!? MAGIC! BLOWS MY MIND!!!!

[@wwaxwork]

The Endy is Chefs perks. You do the work you get first dibs on end bits.

[@randelishus]

Carla - when will you share where you get all your amazingly kitschy-beautiful cutting boards from? I’m hooked on the rainbow-marbled and this one for starters. Also - I have your book. It’s amazing. Also - you’re one of my culinary heroes. Thank you for being you and sharing your world of food with all of us. 💜🙏🏻🌈

[@theacaban]

I finally got my hands on TSSG yesterday and I can’t wait to dive in! 🤩🤗

[@chloem11]

Omg. I’m so glad you have a recipe for this. I grew up in the Midwest and pork and beans was always on the menu. I now live on the east coast and get looked at like I have 7 heads whenever I mention it. Pork n beans for life!!!

[@izzybell3349]

So i made this recipe once already following it mostly to a tee (couldn't find the spanish spice in my store, had about double the meat, etc) and it still turned out very delicious. Especially the beans, they were honestly my favorite part lol! Remaking it this week with beef instead since pork isn't my preferred, and am very excited for the end result knowing how good the first try turned out. Definitely easy and hands off for anyone looking for a filling and big meal for a family (or many many leftovers).

[@il1372]

She’s clowning 😂 I love the “endy” story 🤣🤣🤣 … “ or just sneak -eat it in the kitchen “.

[@bryanmcwhirter9945]

Hello Carla, Bryan from Canada, this is the third time I've watched the pork and beans epudode and it keeps getting better. The endie is not a difficult issue, wrap it up and stuff it at the back of the fridge for you tomorrow!! Thankyou Carla!

[@OustoL]

I picked up the book recently and without even realizing it said aloud "That sounds so good!" while reading the list of recipes 😂 Can't wait to cook my way through this baby!

[@circejanuary]

This is the only way I will ever make pork and beans for the rest of my life. I followed the recipe pretty much to a T (which I never do) and it was delicious, spicy and with the right amount of fat. I had a lot of beans left after the pork and we finished those with soft boiled eggs the next days. It was just so good. Want to make it again in the next few weeks, which is a big deal because I don't usually repeat meals for months usually.

[@effys7810]

carla is absolutely glowing in this video wow

[@monkiecher]

Great tip to use vinegar if the dish is missing a little something, Looks delicious!

[@robcrowe11]

Carla probably knows but this is a great way to make some pork and some black-eyed peas for a proper southern New Year's Day supper. And watercress salad provides the greens rather than the hours long cooking required for collards.

[@kaylaalbers1153]

Also, I bought your cookbook yesterday and I'll be darned if this isn't the recipe I was most excited about. And here we are!

[@Pammellam]

In her _LOVE SOUP_ book, Anna Thomas always, ALWAYS adds _lemon_ at the end of most of her soups for that hit of brightness. I have learned that from her and it works!

[@jane-cn6nd]

Lemon makes a huge difference!

[@stephenmilligan6709]

Thanks mama Carla! I need to go out and get this book. I just decided to make this next week for my family.

[@jonathandalton2921]

these videos are a joy to watch , thanks!

[@megangelos]

This was perfect for our -40 degree temps in Maine today! The vinegar really does make it.

[@gabriellira8575]

Oooh it looks amazing

[@sithyq3480]

Oh no! The boy band metaphor for flavor balance will carry on for the rest of my life.

[@gd-mn2yw]

Wow, Carla, you crushed it with this recipe. We made it on this slow Sunday afternoon. Spectacular. Cranberry beans instead of black eyed peas, but otherwise per recipe. We decided we would gladly have this as a Christmas or New Years or basically any special occasion/company meal. espelette pepper from Amazon. Wowza!

[@dressmaking]

Made this tonight and it was excellent! Even though I only let the pork shoulder sit with seasoning for 30 minutes instead of the 12 hours the recipe calls for, still worth doing. I’ve slow cooked a lot of pork shoulder, pork butt, picnic pork in my life and this was the best. The presentation was definitely a step up from the mess of (delicious) pulled pork I usually end up with. Will definitely make again but for now I am looking forward to the leftovers.

[@dressmaking]

Made it again for New Year's Day dinner and while the beans were delicious, the pork skin was crispy, whole sections of the pork were pretty dried out and needed a lot of the leftover pot likker to rebalance. What I did differently was a) let the shoulder sit in the fridge uncovered with spice rub for 16 hours b) used a pressure cooker instead of slow cooking (1:10 for a 5lb shoulder) c) 45 minutes in the oven at 375, on a sheet pan, possibly not enough pot likker in the pan I can salvage the roast but next time I think I'll cut back on the secondary cooking.

[@andrewmccrea37]

This was absolutely delicious! Definitely going into our semi-regular rotation.

[@ImAlive11550]

Paused it 5:57, went out for a sesh, came back, sat down & saw what I saw & thought out loud "Did she just cook a Capybara?!?! wth was I watching!!" Hahaha

[@sophieburgess4523]

Relieved that someone else panicked at the whole capybara on that pan

[@getoffmydarnlawn]

I'm SO going to make this on New Years Day, it's supposed to get cold and snowy here so this will be perfect. Thank you for sharing your work!

[@kimhaas7586]

Just made this and omg is it good. Couple changes. I didn’t have basque chilis. I had cayenne and not hot smoked paprika. So I substituted Calabrian chili in olive oil. It was a moist (1) rub. Second thing is I added some ham based bouillon. It added a depth of flavor that was missing in the beans. Third, I used an immersion blender. Worked perfectly. I have a mix of smooth and creamy bean and some chunky bean. The pork was shreddy from the Dutch oven. So moist. (2). Crisping in the oven as we speak. One thing I didn’t expect was the touch of sweetness of the beans. It’s just enough of the natural sweetness of the bean and not that molasses and brown sugar syrup sweetness. Bravo! I love it.

[@fishermodels5511]

Made this today with Rancho Gordo Cassoulet beans. Damn this is good.

[@patrickburns9015]

I always give the ENDy to my partner. And I can tell if he’s feeling the love when he shares a little with me 😍

[@johncarroll6590]

Should we remove the pork skin before adding the dry rub so it sticks better and penetrates the meat? I can’t tell if it was left on in this video?

[@CarlaLalliMusic123]

skin off, fat on

[@siriushpfan]

Cook gets the end-y. Always. It's an unspoken rule that if you make the recipe and put in the work, you get to eat the best parts of it. That's your prerogative as the cook.

[@GPMIAMI]

Yum! This pork and beans looks better than the traditional one with tomato sauce and hot dogs.

[@jennifertucker5907]

So your cookbook is in my Amazon cart!! But I do have a question- I have fresh blanched frozen black eyed peas, would those work the same way?

[@danielleallen8323]

This recipe looks amazing! I don't have an oven - could I cook this on the stovetop for a similar effect?

[@CarlaLalliMusic123]

Absolutely. Very very bare simmer. Should take approximately same time!

[@theouthousepoet]

I've wholly convinced my partner that the Endy is not a thing. It's an old wives tale, and that he misremembers his youth where his mother handed out such miracles. That section of the roast is simply uncrisped -- and my partner is not allowed in the kitchen while I cook.

[@deidrecalabro5725]

An endy gift? It's your prerogative not to share but be prepared to never receive an endy gift from your husband. Looks delicious but I think I would have reduced the liquids a bit before blending the beans. Thanks Carla!

It did-it was a sliver from the blade part of the shoulder. Just depends where they cut the roast from-this is like 1/3 of a whole butt/shoulder so it will vary 👍
