I know exactly what you mean. I've never been able to make my beans taste like restraunt beans. They must have some secret ingredient.

I don't know if your refering to baked beans or Mexican beans! I'm an expert at both. I'm living in Mexico and we cook beans all the time. Here they just boil them til you think they are done then add another hour to that! LOL! Don't add anything, do that when you eat them and add what you prefer! tdemex

I'm in Monterrey! They use clay pots here a lot when we cook it's different, but there are 9 of us here on and off! But we have a big canning cooker and they will boil about 5 pounds at a time, and the put a couple of cups of the finished beans with the juice in zip lock bags and freeze up many of those for latter! tdemex
