It's really not that much Blake. I make them pretty much the same
way. I don't do much measuring but I'm sure I use about the same
amount of garlic. I like mushy beans so I cook them longer than most
people here seem to. I don't notice the garlic, but I'd notice if it
wasn't there. Nothing overwhelming at all.
