Joan of Arc Great Northern Beans, 15.5 Ounce (Pack of 12)

Very reeasonable price pantry staple for this vegetarian! They taste great though I prefer a bit more spice.

good flavor beans are tender 1 can was half full no liquid that was a first for me other than that they are a good deal

I have used Joan of Arc Chilli Beans for years in my chilli. I couldn’t find it in the stores where I live. Amazing Amazon had them.

As advertised. Good stuff!

I like these beans and good taste.

I ordered a case of 12 Butter Beans, got them Sat. Arrived great, neatly packed and shipped nice, no dented cans! This is June 2020, Exp on the top is Feb 2022, great date! No pull top, have to use can opener. Have not had any Butter Beans since March, due to Covid-19. Have not been able to get any locally. Opened a can Sunday to have with Cheese Burgers & Mashed Potato's. Drained half of broth off, beans was down about an inch, nice, not mashed and broken up. There was 2 or 3 squished on the bottom which is less then regular. I put a lump of butter & fresh cracked black pepper, Was GREAT! We like Joan of Arc the best, have tried other brands, but they was over cooked and mashed in the cans, half way towards refried beans texture. Others not cooked enough, hard. Some even hard some small green lima beans in there cans, that is not Butter Beans! To those who don't know, Butter Beans are big Fordhook Lima Beans, that was not picked in the field on time for use as regular Lima Beans. They let them stay in the field about another week, then pick them, dry them, then cook them in water & a little salt, then process them, can them, which cooks them more. My one Grandmother made her own Butter Beans from the garden. The Fourth is just around they corner, I will take 3 or 4 cans, drain off the broth, put in casserole, brown half pound bacon, then saute an onion & green pepper, add favorite barbeque sauce, bake in oven, don't cook till dry, leave a little sauce, great for picnics!Update; 6-30-2020, Just got my 2 extra cases I ordered on Monday, got them today Tuesday, all arrived great, nice package, not beat up, NO DENTS!! Exp. 4-2022. Thank You Amazon Workers! Tip of the hat to ya!

Good

Good flavor! Some chili beans are much too mild (greatValue brand for example), but I find these to have a good strong chili taste. Could easily just eat it like a bowl of meatless chili. Or use for chili dogs, or even on tacos. Has enough flavor to be a food in and of itself. I really expected these to be bland, and they are not. I like them and would consider buying again to keep in my pantry.
