I like mine much more creamy. Smashing a good number of beans makes it better for me.

I can tell they aren't creamy like I personally like them. To each his own though.

Guys. I'm cooking for 6 adults Friday and cooking red beans and rice and all recipes call for 1 lb of beans.

Is that enough? How much should I make?

I would go with at least 2-3 just to be safe. Nothing wrong with leftovers right?

They were cooked until soft all the way thru but not mushy. I do not like them mushy.

you could run across 165 and sprint that field with a 5 gallon bucket full of water for a little while..

The bayou behind my house is feed from Bartholomew. I could scoop it up from behind the house and not worry about getting hit on 165.
