Tacos: Baked Beans or Refried Beans?

I ve had tacos with regular black or red beans. I ve also had them with refried beans

I never had them with baked beans because I don t know if the flavor would complement a taco. Obviously it would depend on what is in the taco itself but would you use baked beans?

    I prefer a taco with no beans at all. I could see baked beans in a taco as long as you were going with a more of a bbq taco instead of traditional. I would also put diced grilled chicken in it. I'm not sure what I'd top it with but it needs something fresh. I think maybe a little cole slaw and diced tomato.

    No baked beans in tacos. Not the right flavor profile. I prefer whole, plain, cooked pinto beans or black beans in tacos.

    Do you mean traditional "baked beans" as in flavored with brown sugar? Ick. No.

    I don't care what kind of beans are in my tacos, but I want them flavored with garlic, onion, cumin, chili powder...not sugar. I often make a pot of pintos in my slow cooker and eat them for breakfast with a fresh tomato and a bit of avocado.

    I'll admit I'm biased because in general I'm not a fan of any of those baked bean dishes that have sugar, fake smoke flavor, hot dogs, bacon, pineapple, molasses.....blech.

    I've used just cooked beans. Tacos are good that way. Use lots of cilantro and some nice chunks of pork- yummyyumsters!

    baked beans are pretty tasty and also healthy for you. so are refried beans. really, no matter what bean you use it is likely to be pretty healthy

    i would say try the baked beans since you say you have never had them with baked beans and see if you like it
