Possibly both. Depends on how much liquid you have and how much you want to reduce / thicken your beans.

Makes sense, I'll simmer covered for a bit and uncover till tender.

I cover until beans are cooked, mash some to help with thickness and then simmer uncovered until I get the desired thickness.

This is the way.

I soaked them overnight, they are tender after about 1 and a half hours cooking. Covered 10 mins, then light skimmer.
Way faster than I thought.
Eta. Put on low for an hour to thicken them up.

Oven at 300° with lid on for 3 hours. Remove, take off lid, and reduce on stove top until it gets to the consistency you like.

I soak overnight, cook uncovered. Sometimes I need to add water, but usually I have it down pretty good without the lid. Most of the time I don't need to add any liquid.

Kids that went to Mayfair Elem & Kenilworth Middle don't know how to cook red beans. ;-)

Probably so! Enough clues there for ya? Is this kinda like drawing messages in the dirt at the old Alex Box? LOL

Partially covered while they cook down to the consistency I want.
